Japanese military leaders’ hubris and denial, fueled by patriotism, led to reckless strategies and the collapse of their navy in WWII.

The Imperial Japanese Navy was a force of creativity, and a manufacturing blue print that once completed, was created “Kaiten”human submersible man made and carried twice as much as their submarines’ of explosive technology and ordnance!! Designed for use against the Allied Naval Command, these mini-submarines were designed to be ferried out inside the regular navy submarine and equipped with a explosive torpedo which was designed for being released by the average Japanese submarine and equipped with a 4 man crew was capable of launching their twice as powerful torpedo weapon at a Allied aircraft carrier, battleships, destroyers, submarines and mini-subs to cruise at @ 170 m’s depth which was capable of launching the torpedo’s in these mini-Japanese submersible underwater subs and up to 75 m’s of distance from target’s and due to the man operated, firing system (range and depth’s) of prime launching distance and depth!!! What looked like another example of the innovative design and technology involved in this particular man operated, 4 men crews all came together and the Imperial Japanese Navy began taking out Allied ships, aircraft carriers, battleships, Destroyers and submarines to sneak attack and cause serious lose of the Allied powerful naval ships and forces by some squadrons /wolf packs of mini yet armed with torpedoes with twice the amount of explosives tha an average torpedo!!! Brilliant story and very well written with an excellent plot and smooth flowing prose!!! Another example of how the Imperial Japanese Navy was constantly trying to get passed the mighty Allied Navy in revenge for the Pacific Fleet Theater of War and seeking revenge for the Battle of Midway a vital, very important & powerful offensive ship/weapon
