A sunk wrecked German U Boat from WW2 era....interestingly has found been off Java in Asia....http://www.news.com.au/world/breaking-n ... 6764802890

Wonder was it sunk by sea or air power or both. Avengers or Hellcat ever had any kills in Pacific?

Intersting stuff, thanks. Of all the u-boats sunk during WW2, I wonder how many have been located? It seems every year or so another u boat wreck is found.

A first rate source indeed! :) Looks like it was U-168, a type IXC/40... one of the larger boats.
