somethings really screwy with them, they go right past crush depth to 1000 feet no matter what they are set at plus they get no below crush depth warning like US subs get.

Type XXI :

the maximum operationnal depth was approximately 492-656 feet (150 - 200 m) abd crush depth was in the order of 1082 feet (330 m).


this was an operationnal submarine as opposed to the type XVIII, but they were very similar in design.

9D2

speed 19.2 knots (higher power engines), replaced later by Typ XXI.
2 more spare torpedoes in extension of the tower.
maximum operationnal depth 492 feet.
