Product Description
[I 201]
――I-201 Submarine is a submarine type name ship.
――Since the beginning of the Pacific War, the anti-submarine capabilities of the Allies have improved, and the damage to Japanese submarines has been steadily increasing.
――In order to deal with this, the submarine type (= underwater high-speed submarine) has increased the speed during diving.
――The hull size is the same as that of the Ro-go submarine, but each part is designed streamlined to reduce underwater resistance, and the protrusions are devised to be stored as much as possible.
――By connecting batteries in series, the number of revolutions of the motor is increased, and in the underwater speed test, 19.0 knots were recorded, but the cruising time at this speed is about 1 hour, and in addition, the sea level on the ship is 1 m while sailing. It wasn't practical because of the problem of getting excited.
――Three ships up to I-203 were put into service, including I-201, which was completed on February 2, 1945, but the war ended without being put into actual battle.
[Wave 201]
--The Wave 201 submarine is a submarine classified as a submarine and a small submarine whose construction plan began in 1944 as part of the interception force in the mainland decisive battle.
――For the design, the experience of developing the experimental ship, high-speed submarine No. 71 and the instep target was utilized.
--The mass-produced [Koryu] and [Kairyu] for the mainland decisive battle lack seakeeping and behavioral performance in the coastal waters of the mainland, and the Wave 201 was planned to make up for this.
――It was designed to reduce underwater resistance like the I-201, with a cruising range of 3000 nautical miles and two 53 cm torpedo launchers on the bow.
――The first ship, Ha-20, was completed in 1945, and 10 ships of the same type were completed by the end of the war, but since it was preserved for the mainland decisive battle, the war ended without experiencing the actual battle.
