The captain is persistent, wily, and will be near-impossible to shake. I always thought this was Bungo Pete in another guise until reading the above. In TMO 2.5/RSRD I've never run into the Akikaze - only this duo. I'm about one for four in managing to take them both out, and never without sustaining a lot of damage. I am curious to know if there was a real-world counterpart to this team.

This is a standard sub hunting group in RSRD. One thing RSRD lacks is enough Subkiller groups, TMO has a plenty. I replaced RSRD with TMO's Subhunter files, does make it a lil more exciting.
