Last I checked the Porpoise had 4 front tubes and two rear.
You also forget to mention the automatic loading system of the XXI that could reload all 6 torpedoes within 5 minutes. The extreme speed it could go while being submerged, its maximum dive depth and it's agility. Now show me those features on a Porpoise.
