The Japanese warship that sank when it was launched was the Yamato, specifically during its launch on August 8, 1940. However, it was not the Yamato itself that sank; rather, it was the earlier battleship Kirishima, which sank in a different context during World War II. The Yamato was launched successfully and later became one of the largest battleships in history, ultimately sinking during the Battle of Okinawa in 1945.
