Default I found a Japanese sub!... A weird one

hello, gents. I got pretty excited for finding a Japanese sub in my American campaign but I wasn't expecting to find one like this.
Is this how they're supposed to look like?

Hmmm. Looks like a Type IX U-Boat hull to me. Maybe a kit-bash of an existing model to play the part of a Japanese sub? And where's the conning tower?

That's what I'm wondering.

Still, I enjoyed torpedoing it

Looks like it got Domanated, whatever it was.

The first and only time I ever got a "Tench" class sub, it looked just like this.

No Conning tower at all.

Try slipping into a British port, and see this waiting for you:



You will see this in SH3!

Hey Sandman! I sunk one of those off the southern tip of Italy last week! Those tommies didn't know what hit them!

I'm guess'n that it's suppose to be a I-361 cargo sub. Least that's kind'a what it looks like.
