@@PrivateMcPrivate yeah but they were not that accurate, they were used more like long range artillery it would next to impossible to hit a moving ship with those
@@RuminatingKiwi927 yeah whats the point of trying when they're trying to kill you by the looks of the modern ships they have full auto 76mm round they could easily disable and decimate the ship that would be fun to watch
@@yuritarted984 or if they don't want to risk killing the goddamn students. I believe they can send a guided missile or something to disable the main guns or perhaps the secondary too, whilst also disabling the engine or rudder by hitting the stern. Therefore the ship is disarmed with only some damages.
The actual history of Musashi and Yamato demonstrated that neither of these sister battleships could survive multiple torpedo hits on the same side. A single modern Arleigh Burke-class destroyer could make short work of any World War II-era battleship without ever coming within range of the battleship's main guns. A half dozen modern torpedoes in one side of the big ships would be enough to capsize and sink them, and that's before we even begin to discuss the impact of the various modern-day ship-to-ship missiles. A one-on-one battle between an unescorted Musashi and a single Arleigh Burke would be over in about 20 minutes, all fought beyond visual range, and the Musashi would never get to fire her guns.
Bro ofc if u give a few high school girls a fucking battleship this is what they would do, also the modern destroyers could EASILY CLAP the ww2 battleships
well these ASROC anti-sub torpedo in this vid only have about 50kg warhead, enough for a sub but can't even pass the torpedo bulkhead of Musashi. WWII era aerial torpedo has 200~300kg TNT warhead, in contrary. Modern destroyers do not carry WWII size(21in/24in) anti-ship torpedo, but only keep 6~8 324mm torpedo tubes for sub hunting.
For those who think that Musashi's armor could hold up to modern anti ship missiles. This may be case if the ship was struck by a single missile but considering how much explosives these missiles carry in their warheads and the sheer force that they impact their targets with, Musashi's armor wouldn't survive repeated hits. And that is not taking into account the fact that the ship would be constantly on fire with the crew unable to control it due to them being constantly bombarded by missiles.
Well if the reinforments know were the target is they could have struck it with an anti ship missile from a distance musashi couldent hit from and it takes some to reload those guns it shouldn't be that fast
I think you fail to understand that yamato can withstand a full salvo from its own shells, conaidering just how much explosive power is in a single shell you cant even begin to compare it to an ASM or ASROC. even if a battlegroup saturates a yamato class with missiles the yamato would survive it, even with heavy superficial damage. taking into context that this is a student ship, those instructor ships should never saturate a ship like that with missiles just because it dramatically increases the chance of injuring or killing the students what they should do is a surgical strike on the yamato's propellers (not the boiler room because that could cause an overpressure explosion which could detonate the magazine rooms) or destroy the main smoke stack/funnel to choke the engines into stalling.
@@princeofpokemon2934 Not true at all. Modern missiles are almost universally equipped with HE fragmentation type warheads, designed for maximum explosive effects, but the tradeoff is shit armor penetration. But because most modern ships are basically unarmored, modern missiles are optimizing for inflicting maximum damage on unarmored ships, and thus don't need to have armor penetration capability. In fact even your average WW2 heavy cruisers armor could comfortably withstand most modern antiship missiles except for the very large russian supersonic ones. Because as large armored warships disappeared, the weapons optimize to defeat them also went extinct. The only thing left in modern naval inventory that could reliably sink battleships (except for nukes), is heavyweight submarine launched torpedoes, and potentially very large supersonic missiles (albeit no on has actually tested to see if they can or not that i am aware of.). Now it is entirely possible to build an antiship missile capable of defeating battleship armor, but no one does so because with no battleships in active service in the world, there is no point is making a missile designed to kill them.
As a Navy veteran, I find myself scratching my head. Vertical launched torpedoes a-la ASROC? Followed by the torpedoes not going under and displacing the keel but striking the belt? Huh?
Thats what your wondering about?! So you think its normal that a fliping giant warship was given to japanse school girls that somehow magicly know how to operate it
Since there is plenty of discussion in the comments, here is how this match would play out in an open combat situation: 1. Modern missile destroyers (DDG) could obviously way outrange a WW2 battleship (BB). A destroyer loadout features missiles with ranges from over 100 km (anti-ship missiles like Harpoon) to over 1000 km (cruise missiles like Tomahawk), whereas a BB could fire around 40 km while the horizon would appear at around 25 km. 2. Even within visual range, battleships were often quite inaccurate and needed many minutes to hours to score hits at longer ranges. A DDG in contrast can fire dozens of missiles within minutes. 3. While it's true that modern anti-ship missiles could not penetrate the citadel of a heavy battleship like Musashi, it doesn't need to either. The Bismarck for example was completely incapacitated due to the destruction of its fire directors and command bridge long before it actually sank. It landed no direct hits in an engagement that lasted over an hour at ranges from 23 km to just 3 km in the end. So in short: The DDG would fire a solid salvo of anti-ship missile against the battleship, the battleship would lose its fire directors, control, crew quarters etc. The rest of the crew would likely evacuate because they're now sitting in a practically uncontrolled hulk engulfed in an inferno, with no options to retaliate. But even if they could sit it out, they would have little to no combat value and eventually starve. For context on the fire: A British DDG was lost to a single Excocet hit at Falklands even though it failed to detonate. The accuracy of the hit and depth of penetration carried it deep inside the ship, so the missile fuel plus burnable materials on the ship alone were enough to destroy it. Massive fire damage has been observed repeatedly. A full salvo against a big target like this would undoubtedly create pandemonium.
and for added context in the video they where trying to disable the ship without wiping out the people on board they where brainwashed and thats easier said then done even IRL its actually harder IRL as if you do succeed in disabling it they will most likely scuttle it to keep it out of enemy hands.
Even in a gun to gun battle, the modern destroyers will most likely have the upper hand, sure the 127mm might lack in punch against the Musashi's 460mm guns, but it has sat-nav computer and/or aerial gun aiming, where as the Musashi can only aim their guns manually using range finders and estimations. The 127/54 is also capable of spewing 40 rounds per minute, and there where 8 of them, a total of 320 rounds per minute. The outcome might be like this (considering if its a head on combat and not a rogue student like in this video), the musashi salvoed the destroyer first, high chance of missing. The on board comps calculates the range of the musashi from the destroyer and the gun immediately moves, and spews a round of 127mm shell precisely into the deck of the musashi. By the time the battleship reloads, changed aim and sends another salvo, the 127mm gun already dumped 4-5 rounds already, crippling the battleship in major points. Many people seem to forget why battleships are phased out, mostly because how dangerously effective and steadfast cruisers and destroyers have become.
Finally, someone agree that the amount of armour Battleships has doesn't automatically means it is impervious to Anti-Ship Missiles Many Battleship entheusiest claim that Battleships would reign supreme in the Modern World due to it's armour able to handle Anti-Ships missiles and won't sink, but its not always about sinking a Ship, it's about dealing critical damage to it's vital components, infrastructure, communication equipment, enginers and so much more, sure the Battleship may not sink but a few Harpoons is just enough to deal enough damage to disable it, effectively a mission kill
It's no surprise the missile destroyer ate shit to a dud, modern warships are made out of paper because armour just isn't effective enough to be worth it, a fucking battle tank could probably cripple a destroyer if it ever got the chance to shoot at one. This isn't me saying battleships are good bare in mind, just that missile destroyers getting bullied isn't surprising.
Fun fact: This is the early design of the Yamato class ship. Yamato and Musashi had 4 turrets with 3 155mm (6.1 inch) guns each for a total of 12. Later on, they both had the port and starboard 6 inch gun turrets removed in favor of the more iconic anti-aircraft gun platfotms that had 3 pairs of 5 inch anti-aircraft guns.
@@sheepbow909 And anyways, there’s actually a really funny in-universe reason for not having a proper anti-aircraft battery, and that is because planes don’t exist in this universe, which is a fact that exists solely to justify how they keep misplacing ships. Because the logical response to “hey this destroyer full of actual children hasn’t checked in for three days we don’t know where it is” is “all right send up scout planes and run a search pattern across its most recently reported quadrant in the same heading as it was taking” and while you can do that with blimps and airships, which they do have, those are both slower than planes and that’s gonna be more easily avoided.
I think the best way to approach this is to directly board that battleship with multiple sailors on multiple fast moving raft/boats. Then they can immediately find those students and -beat them to death- see what's actually going on.

For you that know know, high school fleet is based in the future where the icecaps have melted, most of the land is now underwater and the navies are the way of warfare and trade. Schools have been made in every nation to train high school students that attend these academies will be future sailors. they train using old ships, and the ones with the worse entrance grades get some of the worse ships. in the anime they also encounter a german girl where something went on with her school too.

@@stalwartteakettlepotato9879 actually ive been to college and got 3 degrees in a tech field, we learned some outdated methods that arent really used anymore. in the case of those show, its basically a boarding school and the tech is the same thing that happens even in our military. "we cant use this on the front lines anymore but lets use it for training". in this case of those show its "hey we have military schools that need hardware so lets give it to them" those schools also have to buy that equipment, i served in 5 helicopter units, the government doesnt give military units anything, you use budgets to buy those. my first unit in 2005 was flying UH-1H left over from Vietnam. 1 of my Apache units mechanics constantly damaged rotor blades, those are 100k ea. a mechanic left bolts loose in a engine followed by dropping the replacement engine into the ground from a forklift that cost 600k an engine. In the US military its not uncommon that training ships have been much older ships than what you'd be assigned to. those ships were want the japanese government had on hand and went "we can sell you these for training" once those classes graduated theyd be assigned to current fleets with much newer ships.

(gets a floating piece of museum that has manual AA from ww2, no computers and built with "all big gun" and ship to ship salvo tactics in mind) She must have failed every possible subject right ? And before the people spring in to tell me the "musashi is the most powerful battleship back in the day" yes back in the day, back when mach 1 was unimaginable but now mach 3.5 is reached and fighters typically move at mach 1+ when attacking.
That confuses me a lot. A waste of resources if it is just for training of little girls. Also why the fuck would they have *little* girls prob only 8 control an entire battleship!?!?!??! I am so confused rn
“Let’s remind those girls that though they have a bigger ship, compare to our arsenal they are nothing but a floating punching bag.” “All weapons, fire at will.”
In a more realistic scenario, the DDGs will simply outrange the Musashi with Harpoons. Also it seems like they didn't even bother with CIWS or Sea Sparrows
When you compare both ERAs cannon for cannons, then WW2 simply outguns modern. However, modern ships don't fight with cannons. Instead, they're pretty much back ups as they fight with missiles/aircraft instead. While missiles won't have the raw killing fire that Battleship cannons have, missiles will be much more efficient at killing ships as they would be able to hit them accurately, consistently and from ranges outside WW2 naval guns. Besides, modern ships can carry nukes. Your typical DDG (Arleigh Burke for example) can carry BGM-109s and said missiles can have nuclear warheads, so theoretically these Destroyers should be able to launch nukes. The show demonstrated a very poor example of how to deal with the Musashi. Not only did their incompetence employ bad tactics and strategy, but they are not even prepared or equipped to handle the situation.
When the USA reactivated the Iowa class in the 80's it's armour was considered impenetrable by anti ship missiles of the day and the Musashi has thicker armour than the Iowa class.
That's a damn good quote. I'll probably use that someday....like in person with someone, not another RU-vid comment.....Well I might, but more like I'd forget about where I heard it and just say "fuck it, it's free real-estate."
Nonetheless id rather have those annoying armchair historians than these silly anime fans trying to lessen the arguments of literal navy vets and ship nerds
I think many people overlooked the things background, since the video doesn't show it: There's these weird mind-controlling mice making the students aggressive to anything around them. Most people other than the crew of that WW2 DD showed up in the end of the video *did not knew this. The DDGs perceived the Battleship was friendly but the latter one is infested with said mice and open-fired on them, Aircraft carrier is not introduced in the whole season since it would be hecking op, plus the writer is probably "Cannon fans" so they purged aircraft from the show-thus no TBD gaming. The reason why they didn't just blew the superstructure, or make it ammorack, break it in half is that would basically means hundreds of school kids will be dead(even thou noone actually died in the show, so I would assume shooting the superstructure wont do jack), the reluctant of DDGs captain basically shows this so they went for mission-kill, failing miserably because plot, too-small of a torpedo and mice messing with electronic
funny that the actual context for the video got no comment and barely managed to be pushed up the list while all the funny discussions about how a 1000kg-warhead-anti-ship-missile would blow up the superstructure hogged up all the attentions
Blame the nukes that US hit Japan with...They did something to Japan. On a more serious note...Japan's population is on a decline even if their companies and government increase one pays and/or reward money for having children... That is the situation...So... I don't know what to make of what I said, honestly.
Amethyst Blade But Japan is the one who started, um i mean they just bombed the innocent pearl harbor together with the sleeping/unprepared mens so... well deserved? maybe?
Just to add to all the people correctly pointing out how badly modern destroyers would utterly demolish this battleship, remember the destroyers have all the time in the world. The battleship is never catching them and support would be on the way, all the while the superstructure is being slammed by antiship missiles. The destroyers would not only be capable of sinking a WWII battleship, they would be able to do so with utter impunity.
It's a bit like a grizzly bear vs a team of Navy Seals. Sure, it would get ugly one on one at close range with no warning there's a bear about to chomp but in any other scenario Yogi isn't going to get within claw range and certainly won't get to walk away.
"all the while the superstructure is being slammed by antiship missiles." You mean, all the while the anti-ship missiles are being returned to sender by the Totalitarian Hive?
@@johnassal5838 Folks like me aren't discussing the lore in whatever this is, we are talking about why the bigger "better" battleships of WWII disappeared.

Speaking of which, all ships concentrate fire on the command tower. Wait for my order to fire. And then I'd give them the opportunity to surrender. If refused I'd give the order to open fire.
Jasper Rodriguez It's good to see people who notice the incompetence of that fleet commander. They had like 11 destroyers Vs one battleship. It's an easy win.
Jasper Rodriguez it must be hard being stupid. The ship and the students are apparently worth more than all those ships and all the other sailors' lives. They are also brainwashed by something, hence why he was trying to just disable the ship instead of sinking that shit
In Nihonkoku Shoukan/Summonin Japan, the modern JMSDF destroyers completely dominated the Yamato-class battleship Grade Atlastar in combat (technically Grade Atlastar is an upgraded Yamato as it have radar as well as proximity fuse) . Not only dis the destroyer peppered the Yamato -class with anti -hip missiles from beyond visual range of the battleship but they even used their AEGIS system to shoot down the main cannon shells in flight .The battleship never stood a chance.
Most modern torpedos don't go for direct strikes. They get maneuvered under its target where the following detonation would have crippled the hull, basically like hitting a spine with a baseball bat.
Fun fact: The secondary gun batteries on the sides were replaced and supplemented by huge amounts of additional AA guns. While the ship was under repair in April 1944, the two 6.1 inch (155mm) wing turrets were removed and replaced with three triple 25 mm gun mounts each.
When the US BBs were brought out of mothballs, their armor had a new advantage. At that time, None of the anti-ship missiles were designed to penetrate heavy armor. So in the case above "training warheads" would have no hope of inflicting significant damage, whereas the 18in cannon shot would inflict severe damage on a modern destroyer. These are designed for speed, not heavily armored.
Well, spotting and hitting a destroyer at actual engagement range is pretty difficult task. Vast majority of media does very poorly at portraying this sort of distances.
@@kousand9917 in actual battleship engagements at standard range, ie 10+km, an accuracy of 1% was considered average, if not superb. During the sinking of the Hood, bismarck depleted nearly all of its AP ammunition, before scoring a single devastating hit.
this is only true for western missiles such as the Exocet and Harpoon. the Soviet missiles the BBs actually would have gone up against had massive shaped charge and SAP warheads designed to cripple carriers, and the missile that nearly blew the Eilat in half would be more than enough to gut a BB with a decent sized salvo
*hopes to see a cool war anime* *sees school uniform* “The search for non highschool (or younger) anime continues” I know there are anime like that, but the amount of highschool anime (or main character of that age or younger) is kind of depressing.

Because the system doesn't allow you to multitask and even if it did you would have to do one at a time which by that point you've already lost your targeting on one ship while trying to aim at another separate one.
I'd be awesome! But alas, that'd make battleships too OP, even if it was harder to multitask as oppose to doing half or full salvos. One example that comes to mind is Bismarck, those guns shred ANYTHING, NOW imagine shredding 2 even 3 ships at a time...with all that said, it'd be cool as hell.
Well, wow should be playing one ship, with multiple crew as players whose task is Manning main turets (1,2,3 or 4), secondaries Canons, AAA, ship movement, torpedoes and a captain. That should be perfect. But yeah, it's a video game...
Fun fact, no Yamato class could survive torp hits at the point the torp bulge met the armor. This is due to a glaring design flaw in the use of riveted armor failing to hold itself onto the ship should even a light shockwave travel through at this point. Basically the hull falls off and the ship falls apart if this area is hit by torpedos or plunging shots.
I like to think when Musashi was pointing all its main battery gun turrets opposite from eachother, it was a reference to the famous picture of USS New Jersey doing that in real life
The rats aren't supposed to be on deck, they're the source of trouble- they're an ET/FC's worst nightmare since they radiate an RF that fucks up electronics bad and cause Zombie infections. The Battleships are trainers, and in this AU, WWII never happened-- at least as far as Japan is concerned. I think a Nazi victory in Europe might have, given the presence of the Spee, and the lack of "things that stop WWII in Europe" and the presence of "things that keep America from waking up and hulk smashing".
While some actions taken by the destroyers were questionably dumb, at least there's a reason why the destroyers don't just outright sink the Musashi, in context, the crews of Musashi were mind-controlled and held as hostage so they can't really endanger them by firing fatal ammunitions at the ship.
Lol I'm a bit late for the party(3 years late) but I wanted to clarify something, while trying to not spoil things. The highschool girls in the Musashi were under the control of a virus, so they became very aggressive and attacked the destroyers. Also, the shot of the girls in a bridge is not the same ship.
Also, modern torpedoes don't hit the side (aka heavily armored area a ship), they detonate under the keel and break the ships back. One MK.48 would probably cripple the Musashi.
+Zhao Zhao and utterly incompetent. Like seriously back the fuck off, missles have much greater range than battleship guns. And even at that range the five inch guns of those destroyers(similar to arliegh burkes) should be able to shred command and control, and remove all fire control directors. If you wanted the crew unharmed just use the guns to remove fire directors and to damage the gun batteries.
Let’s be honest, in real life they would hit with one torpedo or 1-3 anti ship missiles at a range where the musashi wouldn’t even have seen them and sunk
I also would like to watch these high school girls get shredded by anti ship cannons, also in this day and age a single plane would have obliterated them
That's if its in a reality and in a war situation. In this scene, the instrutors were trying to locate and save the missing students and ship. They wouldn't want to hold accountable for their students' death so in this scene maybe they're using dummy torpedo or torpedoes that only cause minimal damage. But who knows? The best thing we can assume is plot armor is everything in a story.
@@rubina6327 as long as no one died in the anime I would have no problems with the plot, but if they actually killed people in the battleship they should have been blown up
The fact that they used VL-ASROC's is kinda accurate since the ship shown is the Akizuki-class destroyer which can only launch RIM-162 missiles which are against air targets, RUM-139 VL-ASROC, and Type 07 VL-ASROC although they are only used on submarines I believe.
VL-ASROCs are designed for Anti-Submarine warfare, yes, but as many people have pointed out, they did state very clearly that they wanted to use non-lethal munitions (Training Munitions)
with how many shells the Musashi had fired on 'Friendly vessels' I cannot say I would have made the same decisions as the captain of that destroyer, with a vessel of that magnitude bearing down on vessels that couldn't take a hit from a secondary, much less a main caliber gun, I would have ordered the fleet to fire everything they had, if it takes a 75MM OTO shell to knock some sense into the students, so be it, its that or get flattened by an 18 inch shell.
127mm vulcano guided shell towards the bridge, I ain't putting my men at risk because some girls had teenage issues. Once fired by it is hostile unless higher ups says otherwise.
If the Musashi had a direct hit once the destroyers would not be afloat, however if the destroyers actually tried to fight for real the Musashi wouldn’t even have had the chance to fire twice.
@@kyledavidgalan9908 Finally someone who actually notices this detail, instead of all the armchair admirals that conveniently ignore HSF Musashi's upgrades.
Since 99% of the comments argue that a Yamato class can’t survive attacks from a modern destroyer, the simple reason is why this is not the case in this anime: *Warning: Spoilers* An virus outbreak that turns people rabid infects the school’s ships. The Musashi’s crew got infected because of this and only a few survivors hid away in corners. That’s why the destroyers actions in this are just unrealistic. They didn’t want to sink the ship full of civilian students just because of some virus.
From my research, that many destroyers would likely be able to take down the musashi after a prolonged fight. The DDG’s would first run like hell to get away from effective 16 inch gun range. Fortunately, ww2 guns aren’t the most accurate so the destroyers would likely escape after a long while of trying to get a lucky hit on the deck. However, the destroyers may have a very good chance of crippling the musashi after just a very short fight because modern guns are decently accurate and if the destroyers hit either the main/secondary command deck or the range finders, then the musashi would probably just be left without sufficient weaponry to do anything and thus could be waited out until reinforcements arrive. Alternatively they could just run and wait for air cover to hit the musashi with dozens of JDAM’s and missiles.
as a sailor student itself, i can confirm this anime is not about fantasy if we dont include physical rules about sea battles, sickness, a japan mainland getting sunked in a shorter time than it has to be (around 9 cm per year if i remember correctly) and a sailor highschool only about girls using real warships instead of a highschool with open to everyone and with cargoships. but this anime is fun and its gonna be my only reason to continue my school for 1 more year then to change the school and FEEL FREE. (sorry i wrote it so f.king long and i dont rlly wanna be a sailor)
Musashi's Fire Control would be stripped away with anti-ship missiles from Beyond gun range and then probably in the dark the Destroyer would rush in and hit Musashi with multiple torpedoes taking special effort to destroy propulsion and steering. After that it is simply a matter of time.
@@sunfyre3463 Fury was Allies Biased, that Tiger would have stayed stationary and shot "Fury" first because most German tankers were told to take out the big guns first and the tank leading the line.
Actually very not true, modern weapons aim deal with modern ships. Modern ships are made out of plastic and tinfoil. Having smaller missiles allows them to be cheaper and allows you to carry more of them, so basically no one carries anti-BB equipment because there can be no possible need to it.
