Besides the time required for modelling and texturing the new boats, porting them to the GR2 format, adding the required controllers and setting them appropriately, etc, to my knowledge the main obstacles are:
- adding new meshes to a GR2 file is currently not possible; it means that any new sub would have, at best, the same number of "parts" as stock subs;
- animations are still not supported by TDW's editor
- most important, player units are hardcoded; even if (theoretically) fully functional, new subs wouldn't be recognized by the game unless we manage to break the code used for "registering" playable subs
