Actually not so new news but always interesting!

We shouldn't have sunk it as it is a collector item IMHO

"The wreckage of I-401 was discovered by the Pisces deep-sea submarines of the Hawaii Undersea Research Laboratory in March 2005 at a depth of 820 meters. It was reported that the I-400 was later found by the same team off the southwest coast of the Hawaiian island of Oahu in August 2013 at a depth of 700 m (2,300 ft). Jim Delgado, a researcher working aboard the Pisces V, told the Chicago Tribune "It was torpedoed, partially collapsed and had sunk at a steep angle."
