Deck Guns: The stock game has 5in guns available in 1945. You can install 2 of these to any sub if you have enough renown. (you can only man the fore gun yourself - you have to leave the crew to fire the aft). So yes you can have two deck guns.

Torpedoes: I can increase the torpedo loadout if this is how it should be. I still can't find a reference that Tench class boats carried more than 24 torps other than the Silent Hunter 1 manual, and I thought they may have added extra torps to make the Balao to Tench upgrade worth it from a game play perspective? (The same thing applies here so I would like to increase the load out if it is historically correct). Can anyone point me to a reference? Would also need to know if the extra torps should be forward or aft.

Depth: Sources reference stronger steel/construction, but the test depth still remains the same as Balao in every source I can find (400ft). Should the crush depth be increased? If so by how much?
