Yeah those decks guns were obsolete, when they were forced to stay off the surface more. This is when Type XXI was needed, but it came too late in war. Germans kept using the Type VII and never changed with the changes of technologies. I've read and watched documentaries on why it came so late in war, if not at all.
Type XXI was really the true answer to shift of Atlantic naval warfare. I wish it could be used in SH5, I remember using it in SH3 and it was a really nice boat.

- available at a very high reward cost;
- high additional drag coefficients (editable from the sim file), for an heavy impact on sub handling
