Submarine Specs

[yamla]

I couldn't find the specifications on the submarines in my manual or in the (different) pdf manual on the game DVD. So I assembled a list of specifications. I do not know how accurate these numbers are to the real submarines and I do not know how accurately Silent Hunter 4 models the subs anyway. Additionally, the underwater endurance and the range numbers are particularly suspect. I welcome corrections.
