Though, with both classes I am still able to manually operate the gun. The manual shows that upgrade available for all fleet boats in March 42 and in both cases I purchased the upgrade after March.
It appears that some of the UPC files in \Submarines may be corrupted, plus other files, because of the strange deck gun slots and crew slots that are not correct.

When JSGME uninstalls a mod, sometimes all files are not removed correctly and the game files get corrupted.

To avoid reinstalling the entire game, I keep a clean untouched install - (never played) and Copy this install to make install(s) from the original I can mod and play. I use Multi SH4. This way I only need to delete the corrupt \Data folder and drag a clean Copy over from the untouched clean install if my files get corrupted.

(Plus of course, deleting & replacing the JSGME \MODS folder & contents)

There is a temporary fix if you don't want to lose your Career that may correct your gun slots and crew slots:

Sadly, I think a reinstall may be needed......... Maybe someone will post an alternative (I hope).

Sorry. Happy Hunting anyway, right?
