AFV Club SE73508 JAPANSE NAVY I-58 SUBMARINE Late with "KAITEN"

AFV Club has now released the late war version of one of the most
famous of Japanese submarines, I-58. As noted with the first version
of this kit, it holds an infamous place in US eyes due to the fact
that it was this submarine which sank the cruiser USS Indianapolis in
July 1945, eventually resulting in the deaths of all but about 300 of
her crew and the court-martial and conviction of her captain. At that
time I-58 had been modified to become a Kaiten midget submarine
carrier and according to Japanese sources even had two Kaiten embarked
when she sank the Indianapolis (misidentified as a Idaho class
battleship��). The sub was impounded at the end of the war and scuttled
in 1946.
