Ranging from the largest pre-nuclear submarines in the world to manned torpedoes, with the fastest combat vessels and midget submarines operating alongside craft capable of carrying floatplane bombers, the fleet should have been an awe-inspiring and highly effective force. Yet, despite playing a crucial scouting role and being equipped with the best torpedoes available, the Japanese submarine fleet was surprisingly ineffective. With unique color plates, Mark Stille highlights the technical details of this diverse fleet, including the design successes and operational errors as well as investigating the underlying causes behind the failures of one of the greatest naval forces in the Pacific. 650 0 $a Submarines (Ships) $z Japan. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Naval operations, Japanese. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008113875 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Submarine. $x Submarine. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85148451 611 27 $a World War (1939-1945) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01180924 650 7 $a Military operations, Naval $x Japanese. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01937589 650 7 $a Military operations, Naval $x Submarine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710248 650 7 $a Submarines (Ships) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136645 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 648 7 $a 1939-1945 $2 fast 700 1 $a Bryan, Tony, $e illustrator. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80006144 830 0 $a New vanguard ; $v 135. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2003045226 856 41 $3 Table of contents $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/fy0715/2007278643.html 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180105034212.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=10CFD294F1E711E78A18091E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
