He doesn't say "only" but it seemed pretty definitive at the time. So I was taken aback when I read about US boats carrying some of both, and then just awhile ago some evidence turned up about the u-boats.

On the other hand, GWX is finished - they are now working on the SH4 version. Me? I don't see a need for them, since the submarine's purpose is to hide, not shout out "HERE I AM!" If somebody wants to change something, they should learn to do so. I'm still learning how to change the things I want myself.
We all know the purpose of submarine perfectly but you can't deny that u-boats carried SS with them. Maybe some of them, or maybe all of them. Can't say that I know that. Nor I make the "quote endings" of mine if there is no straight answer I was looking for in a books .
