Battleships stopped being practical because of air superiority.

There are carriers larger than most battleships long before destroyers were.

Ok, sauce this please.

>>30030466
Battleship Yamato or something like that.

>>30030474
Ah, the live-action one? Thanks.

>>30030485
Look at the webm again. Focus on one ship. You'll notice it's not shooting. The lasers are coming from out of the frame, and none of the ships are shooting. I think it's stupid. I thought the whole movie was stupid. But hey, you might be a faggot and like it.

Boku No Voltron

>Now destroyers are the same size as battleships.

What's it like being retarded?

>>30029098
More, it was a matter of an aircraft carrier being more useful than a battleship. Carriers could send planes farther and more accurately than a battleship could send shells and if the aircraft was shot down? So what. It was only one plane.

Captain Harlock (2010) The skull kinda gives it away.

Am I being memed?

OP posted space battleship yamato 2199, and the first poster posted Harlock

We stopped with battleships because of the evolution of weapon systems.

Air power, cruise missiles etc
You dont need to expose your ship and direct line of sight style cannon fire went out the door. Now battleships might be making a comback as ship defenses against missiles and air power have advanced significantly and rail guns are happening.

Explain the skull and crossbones. We're talking about>>30029795 right?
