Once upon a time
commander Kanada said.
[The national power of Japan is smaller than that of the United States.
If an ultimate battleship is made, the United States can,t attack Japan.
A huge battleship excels eight usual battleships. ]
This craziest battleship was planned in his word.

The total length 582m
The width 97m

Evaluation;crazy&This must be joking.

crazy!

582 meters long? How the would that ship be possible to navigate? Vessels such as oil tankers must plan their navigation four or file nautical miles ahead - I guess this vessel is some sort of static coastal battery, just can't figure out anything else.

Uh, not real.

real or not, i'm asking Santa for one of those for Christmas!

A twin deck aircraft carrier is not new, but why the heavy guns when the world has gone missile crazy. A missile will go further and be for accurate than a gun and making those heavy shells will not be much different in price than a missile. Surely they will not get close enough to the enemy to open fire with the big guns. If it is also going to be an aircraft carrier then any shore bombardment can be done by aircraft.

In 1945 the world hadnt gone missile crazy, only the germans had decent missiles. Was definatly a crazy design and if it had been built then cant see the japanese of being able to replace any of there other ships due to the amount of steel that would of been needed.

just assembling a crew for that behemouth would deplete what was left of the IJN's manpower in the later stages of WWII

As am I. The old guy and his reindeers will have to carry an awful lot more this year, huh.

amen, i dont think that the sleigh will be able to carry 500000 tons on top of the usual stuff Santa brings.
