Does anyone have the citation noting that I-26 was previously named I-27? All I could find was that there was both I-26 and I-27 operation concurrently. I-26 operated mainly close to mainland USA in the north Pacific while I-27 operated mostly in the southern Pacific around Australia and the Indian Ocean.

Both were sunk in the same year, though almost 9 months apart - I-26 sank at Leyte on October 1944 while I-27 sank at the Maldives earlier that year in February 1944.

Could this be a hint that I-27 (tentatively named Nina) will be included in future Kancolle updates?
