I know many here have an attachment to this boat.

However, I like to upgrade whenever new models become available.

I have upgraded to the type XXI and had 4 missions thus far.

My base at Bergen was just disbanded and now I'm at Tronhiem.

On the last patrol, I came across a convoy in Grid AM72.

I sank an Intermediate Tanker, a Large Tanker, two Whale ships, a destroyer, and a frigate.

While trying to escape, I dove to 176 meters and ordered Silent running.

No matter what I tried, a destroyer always found me.

Tried attacking this convoy twice. (Saved before contact, and re-loaded)

Question: For those of you who are brave and have the Type XXI, what is the maximum depth you can dive to?

This last run, I dove to 196 meters.

212 was the farthest i was willing to go i heard crinks and cranks and went back up to operational depth they still sunk me. 1945 is a miserable time in GWX destroyers ASDIC is so good and the hedgehog is a major pain in the butt
