The two boats have extremely similar hulls, so they look like twins. The one in SH4 is however supposed to be a type XVIII. As you know it was actually never completed, but its hull design was put into service as the XXI.

I respectfully disagree a total of 62 type XXIII were completed and ebtered the war before it ended. It the 23 boat had a length of 34.7m a beam of 3m with a crew of 14. The XXI boat was twice the size with a crew of 57. My info comes from Horst Bredow founder of the U boat archive in Cuxhaven-Altenbruch. The info is dead accurate
