I suspect Sakazaki will update this to remove that... page guide or whatever it is.
Since I don't need this, do you want it?As it happens I (Tatsuta) tested out the small model transport tube and found it to be too small to be practical! I wasn't the only one who used it, but it's probably a rare piece of equipment.And there's no record of Maruyu using them.Reference: Maruyu 2001 boat data
41.41m length, 24t cargoLike this!Small Type Transport Tube: 24.1m long, 58t cargo, 47t oilTransport tubeEven though submarines towing these tubes did secretly transport several hundred tons of material, the large type proved too big for them, so no more of these were made. The medium type was also slightly too big for frontline duty.Reference: Complete Illustrated History of Imperial Japanese Midget SubmarinesMedium Type Transport Tube: 33.1m long, 185t cargoT-that's as big as me!You've all seen Maruyu's transport tube, but did you know it was cylindrical?The figure below illustrates the cylindrical shape of the transport tubes which were historically used.Thank you very much! I'll do my best to transport even more!Doesn't it look like a torpedo?Large Type Transport Tube: 41.3m long, 375t cargo
