Whether you are offered a new sub or not depends on a few factors. I'm not sure if difficulty level factors in, but having good or excellent ratings on patrols is a big part of it.
I don't recall exactly when I was offered a VIIC, though it might have been in mid or late 42. I never requested a transfer, so it might be possible to get a new sub sooner that way.
Equipment upgrades become available over time as the war progresses. It's a relatively dry spell between 39-42.
