All depends on your settings and boat.

Obviously with SH5 we're limited to a Type VIIx. This doesn't allow you to do the lengthy patrol times of say a Type IX.

Now with realism settings, obviously unlimited fuel means.. well unlimited range, the only limiting factor being torpedoes.

However, in general, with a type VIIA restricted to the Celtic and North Sea, your general patrol times are going to be about 20 days out at sea depending on how many targets you run into as well.

Once you start reaching the Type VIIB/C you'll start ranging further out into the Atlantic and looking at 30-40 day patrols.

Also, to get promoted you just need to wait. Generally by the end of Total Germany you'll have a type VIIC.

Also, there is a mod that lets you begin your campaign in a Type VIIB (which is realistic since I don't believe VIIAs were used in combat..)
