Captain Toshio Hirayama took command on 10 March 1945. He was her captain when she went with Yamato the following month. On 1 April 1945, at Okinawa, Suzutsuki was in Yamato's screen. She remained afloat.
On 7 April 1945 she was in that screen for Operation Ten-Go. Yamato's force was on the way to Okinawa, and Suzutsuki was with it. She came through Operation Ten-Go afloat. The day left her still serving in Yamato's screen.
