The 'Untouchable' Japanese Carrier That America Hunted For Two and a Half Years
American submarines hunted this aircraft carrier for two and a half years. She survived three direct dive-bombing attacks, slipped away from a near-perfect torpedo stalk, and kept coming back from damage that should have ended her career. This is the story of the Shokaku — one of the most resilient and most hunted carriers in the Imperial Japanese Navy, and the single submarine patrol that finally caught her at the worst possible moment of her entire career. In this video, we cover: How Shokaku helped sink the first carrier ever destroyed by another carrier in naval history Why being bombed at Coral Sea may have accidentally saved her from the disaster at Midway The submarine commander who stalked her in 1943 and let the shot slip away The fatal moment of vulnerability that finally caught her, and the flagship lost in the same battle the same way Subscribe for more deep dives into the ships, battles, and sailors of the Imperial Japanese Navy. #JapaneseNavy #WW2History #NavalHistory #PacificWar #AircraftCarrier #Shokaku
