Very interesting report about the finding of the I-401 (Japanese
Aircraft Carrier Submarine - I know that sounds like a contradiction!)

Looks to be in good condition, for a sub sunk half a century ago.

Pity it couldn't be lifted like the U-534 was but I suppose there is
no lure of Nazi gold.

Anyway, U-534 here:
