The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has released photographs of a Japanese mini-submarine that was sunk at the very beginning of the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941.

I had heard of the midget submarines that were part of the attack on Pearl Harbor, but this is the first time I remember seeing a photo of a sunken one.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting this Lusik. Very interesting article. The sub seems to be in good condition considering.

The attack on one of these submarines was pictured "Tora, tora, tora", which was one of my favourite war film years ago.
