Just some information on Germany's one-man subs. I've always been fascinated by small capsules, whether they be spacecraft, or in this case, a submarine capable of sinking a ship. While the mini subs were of no practical use in the war, they were a natural idea. Why have 40-50 men on a sub to sink a ship, if you could sink it with a one-man sub. Of course, things weren't that simple.
Would absolutely love to have a midget sub modeled in Silent Hunter. It would be more like being at the controls of an airplane underwater.
