ASW recordings & the sinking of I-52

[JamesT73J]

I thought you SH3 skippers would be interested in this. It's a composite of sound recordings from the sinking of I-52, a large Japanese submarine heading for Lorient mid-atlantic in summer '44.

There's also a wealth of other sounds on this page; a real historic gem.

A rare gem in the flotsam of cyberspace. You have my gratitude.

thx for sharing the links!

these recordings were used as a training for ASW-personnel, I suppose?!

The above site is an excellent resource, the I-52 recordings had a thread dedicated to them here once but that was some time ago.
