Take a look at Japan's newly launched submarine.

The new 3,000-tonne diesel-electric submarine (SSK), which has been named ｢らいげい｣ Raigei (with pennant number SS 516), entered the water on October 17 in a ceremony held at KHI’s facilities in Kobe City. The newly launched SSK will use the new Kawasaki 12V 25/31 diesel engines with high output power for the first time.

Raigei is Japanese for "thunder whale".... I can't accurately express how satisfyingly that name matches with the footage we've seen, but it is a VIBE folks.
