The History of the Japanese Escort

By 1944, Japanese anti-submarine shells were able to retain their energy and dive underwater considerable distance. So getting in a gunfight with the Japanese escort is actually more hazardous than you might think. To bring your submarine on the surface, I don't care if it's at night, inside of an enemy convoy with escorts on either side of you a mile or less away. That is supreme, supreme confidence, and not only your ability, but everybody that's riding in that submarine.That is absolutely incredible.
