The unit served in the Imperial Japanese Navy and gained notoriety by sinking the American cruiser USS Indianapolis in July 1945. This event directly affected many US Navy sailors and played an important role at the very end of the conflict.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    AFV Club has designed the I-58 model in the \"Late Type\" variant, reflecting the refit of the vessel that adapted it to carry manned Kaiten torpedoes. The model very accurately represents specific features of the I-58, such as the modified conning tower, platforms, and deck armament, allowing for an authentic reproduction of the submarine's historical profile from this period.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eModel advantages and target group\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The model is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers who expect solid quality, precise detailing, and challenges when working on a miniature ship replica.
