Kaiten: Japan's MANNED Torpedoes

As WWII was drawing to a close, and Japan began to grow increasingly desperate as the Allies began to close in on Japan, and decided to implement what could be seen as the 'water version of Kamikaze fighter planes'; torpedoes that were operated by a pilot inside of them.
