Just some thoughts with no U-boat data to substantiate...

I must admit, I agree with Observer. I was surprised to see the level of change you included. BUT, I say this based on absolutely no fact, so it's just gut feeling. For example, the change in dive time is 2 seconds. This is nearly the difference between a VIIB and VIIC's default dive time. If this was the case, I would instinctively think that there'd be documentation around stating that "Kaleuns in VIIB's could get VIIC dive times by simply removing their deck gun", but I've never read such a statement.
