Here's a Pic of U-1 the first Type IIa to be launched, appears to have 2 scopes.

Also a set of plans for Type II German Pre WWII submarine, 1935 (D)

The scope positions seem to match the positions of the U-1 Pic above.


Plans found here, also more sets available:

And the red scope button I assume brings up the RAOFB?

Now a suggestion.In the space above the officer icons where the actual functions of that officer appear....is it possible to have the next level of functions appear smaller and in that box also or even slightly above.Right now you click the NO and then say search pattern...his next functions appear much larger and centered in middle of screen and slightly higher.It would just be icing on the cake for the GUI but also at times when you click for WO to identify target the target name appears under the functions you wanna click.
no Wolfstriked, the numbers above the bearing are the digital gyroangle . i put this there becuase the mini tdc panel (when player has it on view) is covering the rounded gyro dial .
the heading of u-boat can be seen by two different palces at scope page (from the left bottom edge of console and from the compass dial when you clic on dials button).
yes, the red button is for the RAOBF tool.

about the smaller secondary officers's orders icons ...there will be no change there . there are some reasons for this but no need to start writing these reasons
