The Kaiten was Imperial Japan’s desperate maritime suicide weapon. We explore the engineering of these modified Type Ninety-Three oxygen torpedoes, designed to be steered by a human pilot, and the technical failures that plagued their deployment in the Pacific Theater.
📌 In this video, you’ll learn:
The mechanical design of the pilot’s cockpit and the rudimentary steering controls.
The dangers of the pure oxygen propulsion system and its tendency to explode prematurely.
A tactical review of the sinking of the USS Mississinewa and the USS Underhill.
Why the Kaiten program was considered a failure by naval historians despite its lethality.
📚 Based on Imperial Japanese Navy technical manuals and Allied naval intelligence reports.
