(Check your local listings as dates and times may vary.)
The final phase of the Pacific war during World War II saw a terrible
new tactic: massed kamikaze attacks on American ships by Japanese
planes. But the biggest kamikaze attack of all was the suicidal
mission of the super battleship Yamato, the largest, most advanced
warship of the day. In "Sinking the Supership," NOVA joins an
international team exploring the grave of this magnificent vessel to
learn the secrets of her design, her final mission, and the violent
events that brought her down.
Here's what you'll find on the companion Web site:
