If you are talking about the eight forward tubes, that is what the boat had...8 forward and no stern.
Quote:
Each submarine had four 3,000
horsepower (2.2
MW) engines and fuel enough to go around the world one-and-a-half times, more than enough to reach the United States from either direction. It displaced 6,500 tons and was over 400 feet (120
m) long, three times the size of the average contemporary submarine. It had a figure-eight hull shape for additional strength to handle the on-deck hangar for housing the three aircraft. In addition, it had four anti-aircraft guns and a large deck gun as well as eight torpedo tubes.
Now that info is for the Sen Toku which is why Keltos wanted the eight forward tubes.
