BATTLESHIP SIZE COMPARISON
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- In this RUclips video, we will be exploring the size comparison of various World War 2 battleships. From the colossal Japanese Yamato, known for its sheer size and power, to the sleek and agile American Iowa class battleships, we will compare the overall tonnage (measured in metric tons) of these historical vessels that played crucial roles in naval warfare during World War 2. Prepare to be amazed by the immense scale of these battleships and gain a greater understanding of the naval might that shaped the outcome of the war.

@@fabriziopastorino3792 that was weak. Was that supposed to be an insult? Italy had like two survive the war. Congratulations, you had one more than the Japanese and two more than Germany.
@@Abbeville_Kid I assume that his sources are Mickey Mouse magazine, since after the armistice we only lost the battleship Roma, for three years we prevented the English fleet from acting at its best by sinking HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Valiant HMS Jervis in Alexandria. In total at the end of the war we saved 105 ships, my dear stupid American
YAMATO is so beautiful
@@ashfxxxnla ❤️
For Musashi you give the standard displacement. For Yamato you give the maximum load out. Doesn't make sense. Bismarck's maximum displacement was not 50300 tons, but 50950 tons. And does the Gneisenau really have 38 cm twin turrets installed, despite this never came to be?
The Gneisenau one is accurate though, she did have 15 Inch guns installed. BUT, they never saw action because Gneisenau would end up getting right after the upgrades.
@@hanjizoe2648 Gneisenau never received the 15" guns--she was hit multiple times while in dry dock and the repair work for that pushed her out of the possibility of getting the new guns with the advance of the Red Army.
They used wows and warthunder models. For example Utah is a clone of Vermont on wows.
@@GaryJones69420 well if Gaijin says it was true, it’s gotta be true right? 😆
Gneisenau have 28cm gun like the graf spee
When the USS Wisconsin collided with the USS Eaton, there was a chunk missing from her bow so what they did is they took the bow from the unfinished Kentucky and put it on the USS Wisconsin. Hence making the USS Wisconsin 11 in longer than her sisters and making her the longest battleship in history

Do officers get reprimanded when there are collisions?
Glad to see the Wyomings weren't left out.
Those old girls need more attention.

Gneisenau had the same armament like Scharnhorst, two triple-turrets at the front. The video also seems to depict that Scharnhorst was taller. But both were sister ships.
Musashi and Yamato were also sister ships with about the same tonnage, other than depicted here.
Hitler's Ship's Were & Are Male's Not Females. GNEISENAU Had A ReFit While His Older Brother Was Spose To. But The British Kept On Bombing Them. They Tried To End SCHARNHORST Life
Since the displacement of ships varied throughout the war, due to modernisations of the initial designs, i think he used the displacement for Musashi from 1942, after its commissioning, while the displacement for Yamato is the 1945 displacement shortly before it was sunk.
Bismarck and Tirpitz for example are also sister ships, but Tirpitz was heavier due to the fact, that it was commissioned a while later, after Bismarck was already sunk in its first mission. Because of that, Tirpitz was already build with enhanced features, like torpedo tubes on both sides and stronger AA-armament. If Bismarck would have survived, it would have been upgraded to the same specifications.
@@balli7836 But we're talking about much bigger differences here, nearly 9,000 tons between Yamato and Musashi - that was never the case.
Comparison Bismarck - Tirpitz: Tirpitz was heavier, anyway than Bismarck, because it had more draft already in design and construction, because it had a bigger range. When Bismarck was sunk, Tirpitz was already commissioned and in training. Her captain insisted the ship was combat-ready (which would have made a big difference, if it had also been part of Operation Rheinübung), but was overruled, because the crew just had four months of training compared to six month on Bismarck.
And no, Bismarck would have got no Torpedo launchers (Tirpitz had torpedo launchers, not tubes) because at that time they already saw how useless they were.
@@martinschnelle3077 It is of course also possible, that he simply messed up standard and full load displacement with Musashi and Yamato.
The Gneisenau was in shipyard to get the new 15" 38cm guns like the Tirpitz, Bismarck had. After a Bombing run it was terrible damaged and work stopped.
Nagato and Mutsu is 46,690 Tons Fully Loaded...

The interesting thing about WW2-era German battleships is that they weren't actually meant for naval combat. Because Hitler knew his navy wouldn't be able to contend with the British Royal Navy, he decided to have them repurposed for hunting down and destroying Allied merchant shipping. By doing this, Hitler hoped to cripple Great Britain by cutting off supplies and resources the nation needed to survive. While ships like Bismarck and Gneisenau could fight against enemy warships in a pinch, their lighter caliber guns weren't that effective for taking out enemy battleships. Therefore, the ships relied on their greater speed to escape from superior enemy forces.

Amazing video as always InfoRanker. Keep it up legend
Thanks a ton! ❤😀👍
Interesting video, but there are some mixed up numbers there. Some ships are listed with standard displacement and others with full load displacement. Easily noticeable with the two Japanese super battleships.
Thanks for the info!
I’ve toured the USS North Carolina in Wilmington NC
👍
Big doesn't mean great. It will mean a prized target requiring more support protection, especially air cover.
They definitely don't build them like they used to. 😀
Obviously there was a reason why the Battleship became obsolete during WW2.
You mentioned air cover, and yes that is true, that is required, often by adding multiple ships in the same fleet. However USA proved that with enough planes, it doesn't really matter.
On Yamato's last voyage, she was accompanied by 8 Destroyers and a light cruiser. 10 ships in total, one of which was blistering with AA-guns. However, USA sent almost 400 fighters and bombers. And after 2 hours of fighting, 10-13 american planes had been shot down with another 52 damaged. Meanwhile, the Japanese fleet lost 4 of their destroyers and the light cruiser, and Yamato were sunk after being hit by 12 bombs and 7 torpedoes. So air power really showcased their dominance even in the naval theater of war.
Look at the battleship Ise from the 2:17 position. we can see a lot of aircraft. Yes, this ship is the aviation battleship. It's my favorite battleship!!
InfoRanker, where did you get the models for all these ships? Nice vid
I am assuming World of Warships. Considering they are only including ships that exist in that game. Hence why ships like Prince of Wales, Howe, Anson, Wisconsin, New Jersey and Yamashiro are not even included. And also why ships like Gneisenau has the upgraded 3 dual 380 mm. guns she was going to receive during the war but never did, the ship has them in World of Warships as to provide a slightly different play style to that of her sister ship Scharnhorst, which has the normal 3 triple 280 mm. main battery guns.
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Very beautiful ships shame most were scrapped or sank

@@InfoRanker the Iowas going in action is gonna epic.
@@kristelvidhi5038it would be cheaper to build new ones.
Thanks for making this but YFI, the 1st ship shown, USS UTAH should have had twin turrets (two guns per turret), not triples. What ship did you show there with triple turrets? Looks like a North Carolina class to me....
Also it Gneisenau has triple turrets not twins. Should look just like the Scharnhorst you had right before. They were sister ship both with 3 guns per turret. I think you may have used a Bismarck class model by mistake for Gneisenau.
Again thanks for making this but as others have pointed out since you used Standard displacement for some ship, Full Loads for others, and sometimes just completely wrong displacements for other ships, many of these ships are in the wrong order.
It seems that he used ship models from the game World of Warships and because there is no USS Utah in that game, he used the model of USS Vermont, which is a fictional "What if" ship in the game based on some of the Tillman battleship designs. Obviously, Vermont would be much larger and even rival, if not surpass, the Yamato-class battleships.
@@balli7836 It's not just world of warships but also War Thunder. If you look at the model for Arkansas, the model he uses is from war thunder as the model has 20mm Orlekin mounts which war Thunder's Arkansas has but not World of Warships Arkansas
No that’s from world of warships. Those turrets are different from any American ships that were actually built: it’s a mix of the Colorado’s 16in and the fast battleship 16in. The bow shape is also different and the side of it is different too. Pretty sure that’s World of Warships idea of an American battleship that wasn’t built within the Washington naval treaty but they took that initial design and gave it a refit similar to the Tennessees or West Virginia.
@@battlerifleproductions7840 Yeah, that's possible. I don't know that much about Warthunder and its ship models, but it's plausible. Arkansas was still in service as a battleship during WW2, while its sister ship Wyoming was transformed into a gunnery training ship before the war. So i guess that the model for Arkansas in Warthunder is the early or even late WW2 version?! In World of Warships they use the version of Arkansas as it was build, with no AA at all and the two cage masts.
Really excellent representation!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! 😋
The shape of the bridge of the Hiei is completely different from that of its sister ships. The only one with a tower-shaped bridge is the Hiei.
They were all beautiful but size means nothing in the age of Carrier Warefare.
The ship being next to Fuso is looked like Yamashiro. Some their name are missing.
My favorite battleships are all the American battleships
❤
Yamato is the most legendary battleship and its almost at the same size as the USS Gerald R. Ford
❤
do even your research before commenting? Largest coral reef is not nowhere big as gerald r ford
Musashi had exactly the same armaments as Yamato, and the same tonnage, you people need to get things correct.
As far as their main armament goes, then yes. Though if we’re getting into secondary / AA armament then things ain’t so cut and dry. By the end of each of their service careers for example (ie. them sinking) Yamato had a far more extensive AA setup than Musashi did. Also - and I’m not 100% sure about this - I’m not completely sure Musashi was ever equipped with her wing mounted, triple 6” guns like Yamato was before they were fully removed to make way for her improved AA battery.
Yamato had improvements later on...
LOVE THE IOWA CLASS
i love how all the non us ships are very modest on secondaries or have them on the hull. and then the US ones are just like strap 1 million batteries to the side.
?
I like the video but I’m gonna die listing down the ships that sank and how they sank
❤
Did you add mushashi
It's near the end of the video
Be nice if year laid down were included.
To the people saying warship size doesnt matter. It absolutely does. The Bismarck didnt sink because it was large. It didnt have a fleet around it. The Prinz Eugen departed and it was alone completely
Still size doesn’t matter….. HMS KGV was smaller than most ships but could easily beat any. The only ship it would struggle against is Yamato since it’s the only ship to have thicker armour than itself. But it could just wipe out the deck.
What crap, you wouldn't have known that the R.N. was the largest navy in the world at the start of W.W. 2. Where is HMS Hood the largest warship in the world for 20 years?
Hood was a battlecruiser
This is counting the largest ships of the war. Not until like 1940 or whatever. Yamato is heavier than Hood and overall larger. Same with Iowa.
@@quadfecta5259 Designed as a b.c. but evolved on the stocks to a fast battleship.

Bro where's FS SUPER-ALSACE??
Why does the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau have different guns when they were sister ships?
The model of the Gneisenau they've used here refers to a modernization of the ship with 6 380mm Bismarck's guns. The works began but they were never completed.
@@alessandroloverde9813 11" to 15". Interesting.

Nice vid
How does Dunkerque have the same tonnage as Strasbourg? Considering Strasbourg was given thicker armour, surely she should be heavier than her sister?
Just a theory on my end: Maybe slightly more modern and lighter machinery, which could offset some of the extra weight.
@@Waldherz, it’s a possibility. I would have to look into it a bit further though.
Id take the Mighty Mo any fight any day.

KGV would be the best choice. 100% the best designed ship of the war. Until vanguard

Did I in this, really good video by the way miss HMS HOOD or was she just not so big.
Hood was a battlecruiser
@@FitClipper Wasn't She 57k tons?
@@FitClipper, the only reason she was designated a battlecruiser was because of her speed. She basically has the same armour and armament as the Queen Elizabeth-Class.
@@FitClipper So were the Scharnhorsts and you could also make an argument that both Dunkys were more battlecruiser than battleship.
Wait, shouldn't Scharnhorst and Gneisenau have the same number of cannon barrels, why does Gneisenau only have two while Scharnhorst has three cannon barrels...???
Because they’re taking into account the planned retrofit Gneisenau was supposed to undergo after her bow was blown off whilst she was in dry-dock falling Operation Cerberus.
The guns were made and ready to install, but this was all taking place around the same time of the Battle of the Barents Sea was taking place, and after the less than stellar result of that surface engagement - which caused another German destroyer to be sunk and the Admiral Hipper damaged - Hitler ordered all of Germany’s surface warships to be scrapped with resources to be instead invested fully into U-boat production.
In the end however Hitler was talked down scraping the entire surface fleet. Still, some sacrifices had to be made to do this however. Ships such as Hipper and Gneisenau being the most notable cases given their damage states.
Retrofit from 12inch triple guns become 15inch twin guns which actually used on Bismarck

@@Rockhopper1163, honestly, battleships technically never totally become obsolete in the first place, it’s just that their downsides were pushed so far to the forefront after the events of WWII that all the benefit of keeping them were ignored.
To this day nothing can clear a shoreline or bring the level of artillery support as a battleship can. Compared to the missiles of today, the artillery of a battleship - though not as far reaching (depending on the gun) - are significantly cheaper and can cause far more damage.

So...why did you list both sisters of the New York, Nagato, Ise, Scharnhorst, South Dakota, Bismarck, Iowa, and Yamato classes? Did you NOT actually do proper research? Ise & Hyuga are the SAME, the Scharnhorst & Bismarck's maybe get a chance, but the ONLY way you'd get away with the rest is if you showed different variants, for example, even knows the Ise's from their aviation battleship days, but not from their inter-war era configuration (they had twin funnels), The iowa's LESS SO! I didn't see that fore-mast on either Missouri or Iowa, nor the other changes.
this channel only using warships from a game
Don’t forget about Dunkerque and Strasbourg, though realistically the only difference between them is their armour with Strasbourg having substantially more than Dunkerque to the point the latter could reasonably be counted as a battlecruiser.
Ise and Hyuga can be used to represent the last two stages of those ships.
They were regular battleships before the japanese navy decided to waste ressources on a concept that was never used.

They’re objectively the best blend of firepower, speed and armour.

Size isn't everything. Just ask the Germans and the Japanese because all of their large battleships are coral reefs now
