- Update History
- Misc
- On the 26th of January 1943, Wahoo and her crew were involved in a controversial incident where the survivors of the Japanese transport ship Buyo Maru were attacked in the water. Though there are conflicting accounts on who had engaged first, several survivors were gunned down in the water and on lifeboats. It was later revealed that many of the survivors were British Indian POWs. In total, 195 Indians and 87 Japanese died in the sinking of Buyo Maru and the subsequent aftermath. The shift in her facial expression and addition of several references to the incident are reflected accordingly.
- The kill markings and “SHOOT THE SUNZA BITCHES” printed on her scarf upon her remodel are references to the real life banners that were hung on the ship, with the quote banner placed specifically after the above mentioned incident on her third patrol.
- Similarly, the 20 mm Oerlikon autocannon she carries upon her remodel is a direct reference to its use in the Buyo Maru incident.
- The positioning of the dive planes on her headpiece appears to be that of wolf ears, possibly as a play on her nickname of "The One-Submarine Wolf Pack".
- Her last known position prior to her loss is at the Cape of Soya (more known to foreigners as La Pérouse Strait); her wreck was found in 2006 through the Wahoo Project Group which is a joint effort between Americans, Australians, Japanese, and Russians, and led by a relative of Commander Dudley W. Morton (USS Wahoo's last commander). The Russian Iskra Team found more evidence following a scan that revealed a Gato-class submarine, the US Navy then confirmed it was indeed USS Wahoo.
- Based on the surveys and investigations, USS Wahoo was hit on the conning tower by an aerial bomb.
- The Russian Geographical Society published a video of the wreckage in May 2024. They also installed an underwater memorial plaque and a wreath with the inscription "Russians remember".
