Ladies and gentlemen, battleships and destroyers,
cruisers and aircraft carriers, ships of all nations and types!
An incredible competition is ahead of us today!
A team of honored champions, The Big Three, trained by Florida…
have been challenged by the contesters and their trainer California.
Stay strong guys! The audience will love us eventually.
Let's start with a shoot-out!
Montana and Vermont are coming up to the firing line!
The targets are 23 km away.
A salvo! A hit! 25 km.
Montana launches a spotting aircraft, while Vermont calmly fires a salvo!
30 km!
Now it's the contester’s turn to launch an aircraft.
The shells connect!
The targets are 33 km away.
A salvo! Incredible!
The champion's shells fall short of the target.
The newbie misses the target.
The judges have announced a draw! 1:1!
Judging by that, we can expect a truly exciting face-off.
The next trial is AA defense.
Most importantly, don't rush.
Wait for the bombers and torpedo bombers.
Roger that, trainer!
Don't rotate your turrets, it will make you look bad on camera.
The aircraft will fall on their own!
Clear prop! Incoming aircraft!
The first attack aircraft are being shot out of the skies!
Both opponents increase their kill counts.
Bombers and torpedo bombers are approaching.
Look at that! The newbie has enabled Defensive AA Fire!
Who would have thought of that!
The aircraft are falling from the skies around her like autumn leaves!
The count is 35:45 in favor of the contesters!
What a sensation!
For the first time in the past 5 years, we have a new record!
45 aircraft shot down!
They have a good chance of winning the contest!
The contesters score a second point and take the lead.
The competitors are getting ready for some true ship racing—Speedy Capture.
Trainer, speed is not our thing.
Guys, I have something to help you win this race.
Nitrogen oxide?
IT'S STRONG LANGUAGE, SAIL-LESS GUNBOATS!
HEAVE THE ANCHORS WITH HASTE AND RUSH TO VICTORY!
While the teams are approaching the starting markers,
it’s time for a romantic moment in our stadium.
Aw, that's so nice!
Ok, the teams are ready.
Ready! Steady! Go!
The score is 2:2!
The next trial is about durability!
Are you ready for Torpedo Blast?
Relax! I got you covered. Your torpedoes will be from Smith.
The newbie is getting her torpedoes from Shimakaze, I hope?
The contestants are ready!
I invite our torpedo referee for tube-by-tube launching, Minotaur,
to the arena.
What? Minotaur!?
Torpedoes have been launched!
One, two, three…
Our champions withstand five torpedoes each!
While Iowa doesn’t look like she’ll survive the sixth torpedo,
the newbie is fresh and cheery! That's what I call torpedo protection!
MORE! GIVE ME MORE! HAHAHA!
We have a new champion in the Torpedo Blast contest.
The contesters take the lead! 3:2!
We're getting ready for the main competition of our festival—
Devastating Damage!
The winner of the competition
has to deal the highest damage to Yamato's broadside within 90 seconds!
Montana has 406-mm guns. Vermont has 457-mm guns.
Fire!
Perfect salvos! Vermont takes the lead!
While the competitors are reloading their guns,
let's listen to a short musical theme.
Back to us!
A great salvo from Montana!
Vermont experiences a slight delay, Montana fires another salvo!
It's time!
Vermont wasn’t able to fire a third salvo in time!
It looks like we have a draw again!
What's going on?
