V Aichi M6A1 Seiran was a Japanese submarine-launched attack aircraft designed during World War II. It was intended to be carried by the I-400 class submarine and launched from a catapult on the deck. The Seiran had a streamlined fuselage, a low-wing monoplane configuration, and a single-engine propeller. The wings and tail could be folded to fit inside a cylindrical hangar on the submarine.
V Seiran could carry a 1,800-pound bomb or a torpedo for attacking enemy ships or installations. The Seiran was one of the most advanced and ambitious aircraft projects of the Japanese Navy, but only 28 were built and none saw combat action before the end of the war.
