40l x 9h x 4w $4400 Inquiries The I-400-class submarines of the Imperial Japanese Navy were the largest submarines of World War II, and remained the largest ever built - 3 times the size of other submarines of that period - prior to the development of nuclear missile submarines in the 1960s. They were able to carry 3 aircraft, each with a range of 650 miles. A crew of four could prepare and get all three airborne in 45 minutes. The planes were launched from a 120-foot catapult on the deck of the giant submarine. They also carried torpedoes for close range combat. |
