Despite the aircraft carrier eventually making them obsolete, battleships still featured heavily in WWII. Which country built the Yamato, the largest battleship ever constructed?
Answer Japan
At 72,000 tons, the Yamato was a beast of a ship. Unfortunately for the Japanese, and fortunately for the Americans, the Yamato only ever got to really flex its muscles in one battle, and afterwards was sunk by American planes.
