Gaijin has a track record where the specific nature of the April Fool's tech displays are not always exactly what the eventual in-game product becomes.
For example, the 2016 April Fool's event was sailing ships, when it was really a tech demonstrator/test of water physics in general. The actual in-game ship content started as PT-type boats and has extended up to destroyers right now. Much of the ship beta testing has included planes of some sort, typically bombers and torpedo bombers.
It is likely that if subs do enter into the game, they will probably start as WWII-era platforms rather than cold war platforms. And the surface ships already have depth charges....
