Need pictures of periscope view from japanese subs
 

If someone can provide pictures that show what is seen (Mainly the graded reticle) when looking though the scope of a modern japanese submarine, I'd be most grateful. I suspect that being able to read/write japanese would help a lot doing google searches, but since I can't, I'm asking for help here.

Also if someone knows which periscopes are equipped in those submarines (May be they are foreing brands, like f.e. dutch submarines which equip Kollmorgen units) that would also help.

Thanks :up:

Try to put the terms you want to search into Babelfish, and translate them to Japanese. Then pop them into Google Images (Or just Google) and see if you get any hits.

thanks for the advice, but I couldn't get conclusive results :damn:

Kaiten Periscope view, Kure Museum, Japan.

I already redrew the markings from the pthotograph using Autocad.

There is also a circle visible in the lower left quadrant of the image.

and maybe another one, larger, in the upper right corner.
