The Type XVIII? Yes, this was a historical inaccurancy as this boat was never built (started to, but not completed). But Walter Uboats in general were built, V 80, 2x Wa 201, 2x Wk 202, 3x Type XVII B. At the end of the war, 3x Type XXVI W were built at Blohm & Voss, but never completed. The Russians did in fact built it as Project 617, NATO code "Whale", rear end of a type XXVI W combined with the front end of a type XXI.
