    I'm pretty sure these pictures were taken after the war was over...I read somewhere that the US took any captured I-400s about 10 miles away from Pearl Harbour and torped them to keep the Russians from getting their hands on the technology...anyways I though you guys might like to see these.[​IMG]
    I think I might have a video clip of this buried somewhere also that I'll try to dig up and post on here for all to see...

    WOW that is impressive. Interesting to see the fates of the I-400 class, since those ships have such a profound impact on our hobby.

    Here's some nice photos of the wreck of I-401 when it was found in 2004.
