The I-400 class subs were marvelous machines. They were the largest subs ever built untill the advent of the ballistic missle subs in the mid 1960s. They were built to carry 3 specially built bombers anywhere in the world, make their attack and then return home.
I read the book 'Operation Storm' about a month ago.
Very meticulously researched piece of work that covers the I 400s from their inception to surrender including the Serien aircraft that was specially built for those subs.
Very tense narrative of I 401's surrender to American sub USS Segundo at the end.
Well worth the read.
