Like Hitman I also Started an Arctic Campaign Mod. From Lots of Research. The Arctic Campaign Began to Coincide with Barbarossa, U-boats arriving in July 1941. Norway had not the facilities yet for a refit, repairs were made by support ships refits back in Kiel. here are the locations I added to GWX 3.0 to support U-Boats Operating against the entire length of the PQ Convoys Course, and the Locations U-Boats Operated against Soviet Arctic Shipping as far east as the Kara Sea in the two months a year it was Ice Free. ( which is also the Location of operation Wunderland and Wunderland II )

I beta tested adding Pack Ice, Ice Fields, and Ice Chunks to the Iceberg Models in GWX 3.0 with success. I stopped as work was lost in January 2017 due to a HDD Failure. and anything I had worked on was backed up, but not enough to replace 3 months worth of work. I am still browsing data to see what exists.
Kirkenes was the main forward operating base for U-boats, S-Boats ( withdrawn due to lack of success ) and the 6th Z-Flotilla of German Destroyers, and was the Base they were using to find and attack PQ 5, the most famous U-Boat encounter while operating from Kirkenes was PQ-17. Kirkenes was downgraded to Re-supply only in 1943, with the Formation of 13th U-Flotilla Narvik in March of 1943. This is when the 11th U-Flotilla Headquarters was moved to Bergen. The 11th was nearly destroyed in Black May ( 1943 ) when its Arctic Boats were diverted to The Atlantic Campaign and the U-Boat war changed dramatically as 45 boats were sunk in May 1943 forcing a complete abandonment of the Atlantic Campaign.
Reviewing some of my written notes I found several locations absent that I had lost in the HDD failure, they are important locations after the Petsamo-Kirkenes Offensive, when Finnmark changed hands to the Soviets. I think it is Lysingheit? ( spelling wrong ) the last small harbor north held until wars end. I know U-995 ( museum boat Laboe ) Passed here outbound for her last war patrol in Soviet waters, was a Secret Operation, U-995 still had a deck gun, and no Snorkel and bombarding shore facilities and landing special ops to interrogate locals and gather intel was the Orders they followed, U-995 operating close inshore and waiting till half the batteries were drained to surface and recharge, mission as ordered was successful and U-995 returned to Narvik for a much needed refit and to get her snorkel. At wars end U-995 was still waiting in the que for her snorkel and refit. The snorkel was finally added but after the war.
