Battleship Yamato was a Imperial Japanese Navy battleship. Yamato and Musashi were the largest battleships in the world, with 65,000 tons and armed with 460 mm 18.1inch main guns.
There is the book, Requiem For Battleship Yamato By Yoshida Mitsuru, who was an Ensign on the Yamato about the final and Kamikazi voyage of the battleship.
