From what I can gather from the Star Blazers dub, that translation suggests it is the original ship rebuilt ("brought back to life again"). They even call it Yamato for the first two episodes before it gets renamed as Argo in the third.

And that is with the entire 1945 flashback scene removed from the story.

The rebuilding of the Yamato also seems to fit the theme they went with for in Yamato 2520 and Resurrection...with each new Yamato being built from the remains of her predecessor. Be it the hull members or just the computer core.

The new version makes more logical sense. But back then...super science that can do almost anything? Sure we can rebuild a shipwreck into a massive warships to save our planet. What can possibly go wrong?
