I-17
I was reading in a book that the I-17 of the B1 Class had the aircraft hanger facing towards the rear of the submarine. is this true? i can not find any pictures of this particular submarine.

In combined fleet it says it was sunk by Tui... it misses the other ship. The other Corvette was called the 'Moa'. They forced it to surface then ran it onto a reef.
I saw a pic, a real nice one of a Japanese sub with aircraft launch, but it was not the 1-17. There is a picture of one somewhere with the caption explaining the sailors were destroying the aircraft before surrender. Here what is supposed to be the I-17... http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~pitroad/display/pt/pt18-19.jpg It's a scale model, hard to see what way the plane launches from there. Here's a better one.... I-17 Looks Forward Launched. |

As far as finding an image of I-17, if it is available, it may not be on the internet. And if it is, it's pretty well hidden. |
