They all but a few were hunted own and sunk or captured.
Essentially, the war was really over for them at that point.
And that's why the entire war is a perfect game arc for a simulation. Games usually get more difficult as time goes on. They operate on an asymptotic curve of level difficulty. This game stops in '43 when the U-boats were at the height of their power. In other words, the arc stops at a plateau. That makes absolutely NO sense in terms of playability.

Unless you're making an arcade.

Oh, wait....
