Heroes and Weapons of World War II

Midget Submarines (2x2)

Ausstrahlung: Feb 03, 2003

Major Gordon Corrigan analyses the role played by midget submarines capable of sneaking into harbours and sinking much larger vessels. Pioneered by the Italians, these miniature U-boats were soon adapted by the Royal Navy and given a sinister twist by the Japanese, who developed a kamikaze version.
