Two Japanese Aircraft Carriers found deep in the Pacific
Although I'm not keen on deep-water wrecks, the wreck of the Japanese aircraft carrier Kaga was discovered in October 2019. Another wreck thought to be either the Japanese aircraft carrier Akagi or the Soryu has been found almost 5 1/2km deep in the Pacific Ocean. The crew of deep-sea explorers looking for WW2 warships were using an autonomous underwater vehicle equipped with sonar when the found this latest carrier over 2000km NW of Pearl Harbor. The vessel is said to have gone down in the Battle of Midway.
