美国潜艇在太平洋上连续击沉了两艘15节的13000吨级日本油轮，开战以来日本丧失的大型油轮已经达到6艘。
' y. U6 y" y7 S4 N# O7 \8 {0 S2 Q) e3 g
随着9月份的即将到来盟军的鱼雷问题将得到解决，我们可以期待潜艇部队在未来有着更好的表现。当然日军的反潜也愈加凶残，空中和海上的反潜力量给盟军潜艇部队造成了极大的损失，开战至今已经有几十艘盟军潜艇沉入海底，数名优秀的艇长牺牲。+ z( t- g1 Z3 G; {! ?, o9 w' X" }6 C

其中20艘为载机潜艇，考虑到日本开战之初只有17艘载机潜艇，后续建造的也只有大概25艘，日本的一支重要的早期预警力量，载机潜艇，在目前43年的数量已经非常稀少了。
