Sen Ho?

Post by rotor911 »

I stumbled on this curious submarine, the Sen Ho type while looking for something else. Basically, it's an AV submarine. A unique late-war unit certainly didn't deserve a special treatment but does it exist in the game at least as a transport submarine ( I didn't find it myself but I never could correlate a sub model I saw elsewhere with a game unit. I must miss something..)

Ah yes, the I-351... What an idea.[8|]

It's not in the game...

Ordered under the 1941 "additional programme", this class was designed as a supply base for seaplanes and other flying boats. For this role the vessel was to be armed with 1x 5.5 in. and 4x 25mm AA guns, and fitted to carry 390 tons of cargo including 365 tons of fuel, 11 tons of fresh water, and 60x250 kg bombs and 15 aircraft torpedoes.(The 5.5 in gun was never available and so twin 3in trench mortars were fitted instead and the light AA increased from 4 to 7x25mm AA.
It could remain at sea for 60 days, could steam for 13000 sea miles at 14 kts surfaced or 100 sea miles at 3 kts submerged.
By end of war, only 1 had been completed, and it was lost at sea July 1945.
Another, (the I 352) was destroyed at Kure harbor when 90% complete.
displacement:2650 tons
dimensions:363ftx33.5 ftx20 ft.
crew: 90

There are only two kinds of people that understand Marines: Marines and the enemy. Everyone else has a second-hand opinion.

Terminus is not so much a wise guy.......but apparently a direct decendent of one of the three wise men.

Hi, Strictly speaking there is nothing that actually states the number of wisemen at 3. Only they brought 3 gifts. It might have been 20 wisemen or 2. (Has to be at least two otherwise it would have been the wiseman)

Actually, the Wise Men aren't numbered in the Gospels.

Origenes of Alexandria (approx. 254AD) postulated that there were three of them, representing the three known continents at the time, Europe, Asia and Africa.

They weren't named until the 11th century, and were then called Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar.
