It's no different than a lot of the tanks in WoT. Most of the post-war ships have similar stories.

For example, the Russian ship Chapayev was launched just prior to the German invasion, but due to the siege of Leningrad, and the resource requirements of the ensuing war, plus necessary reconstruction of the nation, she wasn't commissioned until 1950. A number of them were designed, and laid down just prior to, or in the early stages of the war, and situations beyond the scope of this game halted progress. The war (and how it progressed) is what made many of the ships "post war". The only solution would be to artificially buff some ships to have T10 power. In game terms, nobody quite has as powerful a "real" BB as Yamato. The tiering is more intended to be a timeline within the line, and to have ships comparable in power. Typically, ships that fought in WW2 go from 4-10. Is there is posted Wargaming guideline for ship tiers vs historical ship usage? It seems vague! I am curious why the Yamato is tier X and has to fight post WW2 ships and many imaginary ships. Some, like the Yamato, Midway, Fletcher, and Gearing made it into hardware, while most others were vaporware. Tier 9 and 10 are ships designed immediately before or during WW2.
Tier 8 is where we start to see ships manufactured and launched DURING WW2. Tier 6-7 is where we find most of the older pre WW2 ships that served throughout the war as front line.
Some stayed front line throughout the war, like the Kongo Class. Tier 5 has a larger percentage as front-line combatants at the beginning of the war. Most were secondary, but a few were front-line at the beginning of the war. Tier 3 was mostly scrap metal or secondary ships with a few notable exceptions of upgraded ships (Tenryu and Vampire) Tier 2 was pretty much scrap metal and barely made it into WW1 let alone WW2. The USS Erie actually had a floatplane (but no launcher). The TIER 1 boats were patrol craft in WW2. The tier 3 Wickes destroyers were lend-leased out for secondary duties, such as escort and suicide bombing French dry docks. Also early on was the Tier 4 Clemson class destroyers that served in both the Atlantic and Pacific in front line use. World War 2 starts with the tier 3 Tenryu (IJN Cruiser) that sunk a New Orleans class cruiser at the Battle of Savo Island.
