Actually, it will not be too simple, even using the same 3D model. Because the existing GR2s have references to the specific .sim(and other controller files) for that boat. In other words, you will have to hex edit those references to new files in order to change the stats for the new boat independently of the original sub used.

Or at least I am pretty sure it will work like that.
Well that just sucks, I have zero experience modding those files to. Maybe I can sweet talk TDW or Privateer.

edit Just found this on wiki:

Dönitz government ordered dissolved by Eisenhower: Karl Dönitz continued to act as the German head of state, but his Flensburg government (so-called because it was based at Flensburg and controlled only a small area around the town) was given no regard after the surrender on May 8. On May 23, 1945 a British liaison officer was sent to Flensburg and read to the Flensburg government Eisenhower's order dissolving the government and ordering the arrest of its members. The Allies had a problem, because they realized that although the German armed forces had surrendered unconditionally, SHAEF had failed to use the document created by the "European Advisory Commission" (EAC) and so the civilian German government had not. This was considered a very important issue, because just as the civilian, but not military, surrender in 1918 had been used by Hitler to create the "stab in the back" argument, the Allies did not want to give a future hostile German regime a legal argument to resurrect an old quarrel.

Once I get everything working May 8th is the date I have chosen to end the campaign as that is the day that Germany surrendered if I'm reading that web page correctly
