There were two Shōkaku class and two Hiryū class carriers. OK so some ships that were not actually at the battle, but A for effort. I got in front of it and managed to get a Shōkaku and a Kongo class Battleship blundered in my torps towards one of the Hiryū. Went deep and after a massive thrashing managed to evade to the west. Then I decided that since I found their version of Kidō Butai that I may be able to find Yamamoto' Main Body. I had a rough idea of where it should be, but after searching for two days, even after I got notified of the retreat of the remains of Kidō Butai I found nothing.

I started to wonder and figured I would ask, has anyone managed to find the Yamato during Midway?

Yes, but it depends on what version/mods you are running. If running the stock/out of the box game, then likely no as the traffic is not very historical and never recall seeing the force with the Yamato in the mission files.

I know for a fact it is in my TMO Update mod , as part of the campaign rework I added a lot of historical traffic, especially major warships such as Yamato. In fact most of Yamato and Musashi's historical movements were recreated from start of war until their sinkings using records.
