I’m all about minelaying subs. That would be the occasion to add one of the most famous (and most successful) French sub of the war, the Rubis :

A cool modification for Type VIIC, Type VIIC/41 and Type XXIII Uboats would be the Alberich rubber plating, which helped them becoming less visible on sonar and less noisy. A few of those Uboats were equipped with it, lije the U-480, which was a Type VIIC which sank in a minefield in the English Channel.

Yeah that’s a really cool one. Fun fact the name is borrowed from the dwarf king Alberich, a legendary figure from Germanic mythology who can make himself invisible using an invisibility cloak.
