After years of service across the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Indian Oceans, the venerable battleship was refitted in 1943 and dispatched through the perilous Arctic waters to escort convoy JW.

The great battleship’s propulsion came from 12 Kampon boilers driving four steam turbines, generating 150,000 shaft horsepower and a top speed of 27 knots (or 31 miles per hour).

A memorial service marking the 80th anniversary of the sinking of the now-defunct Imperial Japanese Navy's battleship Yamato was held in the city of Kure, Hiroshima Prefecture, on Monday.
