Here are some interesting details about the Japanese Navy's I-400 class submarines, often considered among the most intriguing of their kind to emerge from that era's warships designs. Each vessel in this particular submarine group featured advanced technology designed for a high-speed run on their own. In fact, at least three such vessels were launched during that period. One unique element these aircraft carrier submersibles offered was their extensive reach capability, allowing them to traverse global oceans with ease, thereby breaking the previously-held distance record by nearly fifteen years upon its construction completion. Inside these remarkable submarines were a trio of adaptable float planes situated within an airlocked chamber designated for their storage purposes during periods when aerial reconnaissance wasn't required. What an impressive sight they would have made navigating those once hostile skies. This entire warship group continues to hold immense interest and curiosity, inspiring collectors worldwide.
