These trigger a tracer-fire effect in battle and reduce the amount of aircraft bombing a single ship in the initial airstrike phase.
Midget Submarine
Also known as Type A Ko-hyoteki (甲標的甲型), it's a submarine equipable on Torpedo Cruiser (e.g. Kitakami), Submarine, and Seaplane Tender. Frequently used because of their ability to attack before the shelling phase.
