Azur Lane Service Record:
2nd generation of submarines to be built after the initial invasion of the Sirens, researchers have discovered that Human Males can be turned into kansens. Exact causes are unknown but proven that constant stress and fatigue may possibly for reasons that males are chosen for main submarine services, notable exceptions to female WWII submarine classes within Azur Lane fleets.
Thresher was constructed 2 years after Invasion Day and commissioned in record time. During sea trials, the submarine suffered a vessel casualty. The boat sank and is presumed lost. 3 days later, Thresher resurfaced and connected with HQ, who re classified the casualty. Preliminary reports indicate burst water pipe to be main cause. ^ (Error, public record)
After months off inspections, the board found that insufficient welding to be the most likely cause. SUBSAFE was implemented from the investigation and no further losses reported.
Thresher continuing service rendering amazing success, sinking significant enemy resupply and warships to push back initial push from the Sirens.
