Have been playing with 1st flotilla and using a type IIA for a long time, finally got the chance to upgrade to a type IID but it's now november 1940 and still no sign of a shiny new VIIB for me to hop into.

According to the index below it should be available in 1940 with 1st flotilla but no sign of it yet.....

I know I could transfer but i'd rather stay with my original flotilla.

You're running SH3 Commander.

SH3 Commander includes corrected U-boat availability dates by Flotilla. The impact is most felt in the 1st Flotilla... The IID becomes available in Sep40, the VIIC in Mar41, the VIIB in Jun41 (yes, after the VIIC) and the VIIC/41 in Jun44. The VIIC/42 never becomes available (just like real life).

Fortunately, if you're not happy with these corrections, they are adjustable/removable. Just look at the second last Q&A here (http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=45430).

Thanks for the reply. I don't mind waiting for the upgrade, just needed to know it was coming ;)
