History

Siren War

After the destruction of MRNS Yamato and her strike group during Operation Going Eleven, The Monarchii Royal Navy was planned to "resurrect" the sea monster, with the blueprint of the Yamato AEGIS-class that they still had in their inventory.

Even though they suffered enormous losses after the lost of the Yamato Strike Group, MGLA and WAEC, which is their former enemy turned into allies after the peace assignment, were providing support and backup to help the construction of the ship. The construction of the second ship of the Monarchii Yamato AEGIS-class super battleship named "Musashi" has been commisioned, named after her World War II counterpart, with cutting-edge technology and upgraded weapons, to succeed the journey and avenging the sunken of her late older sister.

Real world/World War Three

The Yamato Aegis was built at some point prior to 2037. By the end of 2040, it had been deployed to Yokohama Port with the rest of her escort-patrol fleets.

The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) is the primarily user of this super-battleship.

Ships in class (World War III lore)

There is five Yamato Aegis super-battleships has been built, three of them has entered the Maritime Self-Defense Force service, while the two others are under construction. The sixth ship was originally intended as an arsenal floating missile platform ship conversion using the hull of the Yamato Aegis class, but the arsenal ship was never been built and left as a cancelled proposed project.

List of Yamato Aegis class super-battleships:

Active vessels:

• JS Yamato (BBG-01) - Named after the Yamato Province (Great Harmony), and derived from her previous predecessor in world war II.
• JS Musashi (BBG-02) - Named after Musashi Province, also derived from her previous predecessor in world war II.
• JS Hirohito (BBG-03) - Named after the Japanese emperor Hirohito.

Under construction vessels:

• JS Michiko (BBG-04) - Named after the Japanese empress Michiko Shoda.
• JS Naruhito (BBG-05) - Named after the Japanese emperor Naruhito.

Cancelled vessel:

• Umibozu Arsenal Ship - A proposed and the sixth Yamato Aegis class, it was planned to become an arsenal floating missile platform ship variant using the hull of Yamato Aegis class as the base, equipped and weaponized with swarmer missiles. The JMSDF appeared to cancel the arsenal ship project, resulting the 6th ship to become a cancelled proposed project.
