1 Torpedo, 1 Mistake — How Japan’s Carrier Taihō Lost 1,650 Sailors

On June 19, 1944, during the Battle of the Philippine Sea, Japan’s Carrier Taihō faced a tragedy that shocked the world. Hailed as the pride of the Imperial Japanese Navy, Taihō was thought to be unsinkable. Yet a single torpedo from USS Albacore struck her hull, and one fatal mistake turned a proud warship into a burning coffin. In just hours, more than 1,650 sailors were lost in one of the darkest moments of the Pacific War. This documentary reveals how 1 torpedo doomed Taihō and why a simple error magnified the disaster. Poor ventilation spread fuel vapors, a decision to keep engines running made conditions worse, and a massive explosion sealed her fate. The sinking of Taihō was not just the loss of a carrier—it was the loss of hope for the Imperial Japanese Navy. For the men aboard, it was a nightmare that ended in fire and steel.
