Bold part highlighted to improve reading comprehension. In submarine terms a submersible is a ship capable of going underwater.

So let me rewrite this sentence for you in smaller words.


"as a ship capable of going underwater, while its underwater it outperforms the type 9 in every respect."

:stare:
Thats an edit I swear but the IXB still beats the Type 7 as a submersible under water having a higher torpedo capacity so it doesn't have to surface to load up the externals.

Good post Ducimus. Thoughtful and well written.

I have used type VII in all but one of my campaigns, and the only type IX campaign lasted one patrol with GWX. Admittedly it was my own fault for trying to take on convoys with the same tactics as I'd used with the VII.

I have just upgraded my PC and reinstalled and have just started a new career with a IX. Just saved 200km out of port for SH3Gen at bedtime ready for extended play this weekend. Hopefully I've learnt enough no utilise this big boat to the max. Wish me luck.

Which IX boat are you using is it the IXB? When I switched the only difference I noticed was 3 times more torps. :rotfl:
