天号作戦
[b]Operation Ten-Go[/b] was the last major Japanese naval offensive in [[World War II]] that took place on 7 April 1945. The operation occurred during the [[Battle of Okinawa]] and was a last desperate attempt by the [[Imperial Japanese Navy]] to slow down the advancement of the Allied forces into [[Japan]], which ended in a defeat as the [[United states|Americans']] air superiority dominated the battle, leading to the sinking of the Japanese battleship [[Yamato_(battleship)|]] as well as other ships while the American aircraft that attacked them only suffered minuscule losses.
