Most of the Monsun boats lacked a schnorkel device. Also lacking were the better radars and radar detectors.
But hey, if the Germans can have a Type XVIII U-boat, why not allow the option for a schnorkel on the IXD2 boats. Guess it is up to the modders to fix that one. |

In the book Shooting the war by Otto Giese theres a picture of a snorkel they built from plans sent to them whilst serving from japanese ports. So surely there should be a snorkel especially when in the add-on they got the most up to date radar and torpedoes a snorkel isn't too much to ask.

This is especially confusing since the description for the Tarnmatte specifically describes it as being a Snorkel modification...

Commander Bernard Von Unfal is the in charge of my U-180 IXD2 and has his version of a schnorkel.
He issued the crew straws. |
