More information gathered on the IXD2.

Does not loose any speed while accendind, decending, or turning (even with the rudder at 40 degrees).

Dive time beats a VIIC!
At Ahead Standard the boat dived in 23 seconds.
This was a normal "D" dive, not a "C" crash dive.

At Ahead Slow she dived in 29 seconds.
Both dives were done in rough seas with 15 m/s winds.

No sense to finishing this patrol, as that would be a major cheat.
