1940 augusztus nyolcadikai vízrebocsátása után a Yamato építése a gépek és a fegyverzet beszerelésével, valamint a felépítmény építésével folytatódott. A csatahajó 1941 őszén került olyan készültségi szintre, hogy el lehetett kezdeni a próbajáratokat. Az utolsó hónapokban már lehetett tudni, hogy közeleg Japán háborúba való belépése, így a csatahajó építésének ütemét igyekeztek felgyorsítani.

A következő teszteket már alaposabban előkészítették, és a csatahajó tüzérsége néhány hetes intenzív tréning után végül hozta az elvárt eredményeket. A hajót 1941 december 16-án egy minden felhajtás nélkül megtartott, mondhatni szigorúan zártkörű ünnepségen hivatalosan is szolgálatba állították, bár a próbajáratok és a lövészetek valójában még hosszú hetekig eltartottak.
