An aviation BB is no match a Yamato class. Damage from enemy ships depends a lot on your armor, formations, and engagement form. Typically flagship Ta and Ru are not a major threat unless if it it T-green or you let them use artillery spotting. They only have 125, 130 Firepower and Yamato class has 118-119 armor. They usually can't even hurt my Kongous when it is head-on, so I am confused what you are talking about unless if you are using Fusou or something.

Head-on engagement requires ~184 to cap even with line ahead formations and no other penalties. Yamato is 189, Nagato is 159, BBV are 139.

The high firepower allows a lot more leeway and still allows you to maintain cap. With artillery spotting you often don't need full power to kill ships, but when you do, Yamato class is definitely not on the same level as a BBV.
