The subject of this GB is the IJN "M5A1 seiran generally as intended to be carried by the I400 class submarines in their attack on the panama canal, This was an audacious plan by the IJN in the dying days of the war, but was eventually cancelled. as a plan it reflected very nicely the unreality of the japanese high command. but it does not reflect the technical excellence of this aircraft, which has been the subject of many models over the years.
i am entering this in the competition, but for a while it will be on the back burner as i complete the other entry i have also submitted (the PBY). it will have to be very much a "time permitting" effort, but i think i can meet the deadlines and still do a reasonable job
