Default snorkling speeds

My knowlege in that area is limited to what I have read. Problem with a lot of literature in this area is that there is little to no speed info. Now with that said, and with the slim knowledge I have from personal experience I would say no. I would think being limited to 1/3 would be more realistic, especially for the types VII and IX.

The type XXI I would think could go a bit faster, but sympathedic harmonics are really really horrible, and can break the strongest structure, so I would think there would be a limiting factor solely based on this factor.

I would imagine the reason the devsdid not model correctly was once again due to the time constraints, but also lack of knowlege when it comes to snorkels.
