Yari mini-sub

Yari is an Imperial attack submersible/midget submarine in Red Alert 3 and its expansion, Uprising.
==Background==
==Game unit==
The Yari mini-subs are not tough units and should be used mostly for scouting and harassing ore collectors on water. In numbers they will beat an Allied assault destroyer and Soviet Akula, but they are vulnerable to any anti-submarine weapons especially advanced base defenses, torpedoes and the assault destroyers' main gun. Should Yari be unable to win an engagement use the Last Voyage ability to sink the tougher foe. Yari can only attack naval units and not any land or air units.
Allied Dolphins are a strong counter against Yari mini-sub, who can quite easily reduce the Yari to scrap and can evade their suicide attacks with ease, thus rendering Yari subs quite ineffective against them.

==Trivia==
*The word "Yari" (kanji: 槍) from the name of the submersible means "spear" in Japanese.
*Yari mini-subs are based on many Japanese midget submarines and the Kaiten crewed torpedoes and suicide craft used by the Imperial Japanese Navy during the Pacific War. 
*Yari's Last Voyage ability can damage a small radius around the explosion, making grouped units an obvious target.
*If Yari is ordered to suicide attack itself to an enemy unit but fails (The target unit is already destroyed by the time Yari reaches it), it will now move at twice it's speed.
