ah maybe I was wrong. Could have been just a gas engine. I just read walter and my mind did go to the rocket engine which was made by walter aswell
Cool, I thought the Type XXI was the fastest since it was one of the first subs made for permanent diving

permanent?
Another word for sunk ?
Japanese subs strong point will most likely be their torps.
The type 95 is nasty (maybe not as much as a long lance, but still)
only about 2 knots off of the I-201’s speed at 17.2 knots submerged. The XXI is the sub i am the most excited to get my hands on though

I’m going to say it right now : I feel like the type XXI is going to be the F-16 of submarines. In one word :
Copypaste
Would love to be wrong though
dont make me think about that :(
As long as i can have my big boy at the end of the TT, wich alone displace more than the entire German uboot fleet, i’m happy

For a design that probably wont get added that i still would like to see is the soviet P.2
I wonder if submarines that could carry midget subs would be able to use them ingame like the hydroplanes

No for a prolonged time with multiple days. Only a few were ready before the war ended

118 were completed, 4 were combat ready, but only 2 went on patrol
I think only russia (maybe britain) will maybe get the type XXI aswell but even in warhtunder mobile they dont have it. All other nations have their own subs especially early cold war ones

The Type XXIII was the first of the ‘elektrobootes’ to become operational with 61 built, from what ive read atleast 6 of them saw service.

I mean, nuclear attack subs are the endgame for what sub tts will have in game
Modern subs will come when the rest of Naval forces moves further into the modern era too. No doubt the first subs we will get will be interwar/WW2 era.
I don’t see any reason that “Sea Wolves” wouldn’t work as an update name. But it’s a bit early to speculate about that.

indeed
That, or SSBNs, mainly because they carry a bit more torps and have bigger flank sonar arrays
Ehhh. At best they’re a sidegrade. The reduced mobility/agility will definitely have a gameplay impact.
