Assuming one had reliable torpedo's. Id say a full bow salvo of 6 fish, set to explode right under her keel. The trick is getting the fish to explode under her, as to spread out the damage to as many compartments as possible. Thats my guess anyway, as i think the compartments are spread out pretty far in the yamoto, making damageing multple areas hard to do.

Even then, 6 is being mighty generous. Ten sounds about right.

Aim for the small thermal exhaust port, right below the main port. It's ray-shielded so you'll have to use proton torpedoes.....

Oops....wrong genre. :p
