  1.  @augustosolari7721  Good points. Sub warfare tactics were still being developed just as aviation was. The idea of subs as forward fleet recon units is not just a IJN idea. The planes extended the detection range of the slow speed subs.

  2. Before you totally dismiss the idea. Think about drones today. A sub could find a drone very useful to operations.

  3. On the subject of submarines and aircraft today. With the rise of drone technology, there is a possibility for a return of the idea. The USMC and USN have used small done helicopters like the Fire Scout and K Max. These can fit on a large sub and cary a payload. We have even smaller battlefield drones that could do surveillance. Something of that size does not need a special hanger or launch system.

  4.  @USSEnterpriseCVBB1  think about drones rather than missiles.
