Deep Blue Fleet

The Super Hiding Armored Submarine, Heaven's it Goes North! (1x27)

Air date: Jan 01, 2003

Manteuffel reveals his plan to defeat the Japanese. Codenamed "Sickle Iron Cross," the plan calls for control of the South Atlantic sea lanes and to establish clear lines of communication to Argentina, which has joined the Third Reich. In late 1949, the Japanese unveil the new I-3000 Kiten super-submarine, with its first voyage to a secret naval base in Iceland, where Maebara reunites with his old Naval Academy classmate, Admiral Oshii. The Germans launch Jormungands modified with jet engines out of Trondheim to attack the Japanese base, but run into heavy flak, Sorai-Kai fighters, and fighters that launch missiles with guided sub-munitions. A separate German attack on the Fleet of the Rising Run prompts Oshii to fire his vaporizer shells at them.
