| Fate | Sunk. Type C submarine. Launched the midget that grounded on Oahu. She did not enter the harbor. PC-487 sank her on 11 June 1943, north-northeast of Shemya. Japanese records put that date on 1 June because of the date line. |
Laid down, displacement, length, beam, draft, speed, and complement are not stored for each hull, so this table leaves them out.
No photograph of I-24 was found. This is I-16, a Type C submarine of the same class, on trials in 1940. It is not this boat. Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons.
