Background
About the ship
Musashi, the second Yamato-class battleship, became the flagship of the Combined Fleet in 1943. The ship served in the South Pacific theater. She was used for patrol operations and participated in the Battle of the Philippine Sea. On October 24, 1944, during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the battleship was sunk by American carrier-based torpedo-bombers after taking approximately 19 torpedo and 17 bomb hits.
