I went with US subs, this is a poll of ww2 subs only right? The us ww2 subs just had that submarine siloette which is easily identified (the scopes up). I didnt know what the german sub was when I looked at it until I got into sh3 a while back. I just assumed it was another ship of some kind out on the ocean. Anytime I saw the us subs with the scopes sticking out I always knew what it was, even as a little kid I could tell. Just has that sub look to em!

I'd say both. I like the whole shape of the Type 7 with the saddle tanks on the side and everything and the US subs just look like they could kick your ass

U-boats by far. I like the sleek lines. For me they have more mystique and "mojo"

I dont really see any difference between the two nations subs, other than size, until the type XXI so my vote is both.
