Aerial view of Yamato listing to port with a fire burning amidships in the East China Sea
Original wartime caption: "A torpedo plane's view of battleship Yamato. This is how Japan's mightiest warship appeared as six lone U.S. Navy torpedo planes raced in to destroy her. She is still making 10 to 15 knots, though fires continue to burn amidships. Photographed from a USS Yorktown (CV-10) plane."
