Default Bring the I Boats!!!!!

There is enough information to model pretty much any Sub in the IJN. Sure the interior detail might be sketchy but the external look would be no issue. What is sweet is the Japanese Submarine version of the BEST torpedo in the war the Long Lance. It would also be very cool to pilot a midget into Pearl or to launch Kaitans. A book called I Boat Captain is very informative about Japanese Submarine operations and just how effective our ASW (Particularly Radar aided gunfire) against there Submarine operations. Frankly the Japanese wasted a creditable and capable component away due to arrogance and incompetance (on the part of short visioned skimmer/aviation admirals). Shows you the huge difference from Nimitz (a bubblehead) and Yamamoto.
