The I-401 (I-400 class sub), along with the I-201 (I-201 class sub) and I-14 (I-13 class sub) Submarines, were captured at the Pacific war's end
and sailed to Hawaii, where US naval intelligence officers could plumb the ships' secrets.
They are three of five advanced Japanese subs the US sailed to Pearl Harbor after the war.
All were scuttled to avoid having to share the information with the Pacific war's
late-comer and co-claimant to such prizes, the former Soviet Union.
