It may be the real world times are not known in which case these are being set to what the dev thinks is playable.
In subs with only 4 tubes, only being able to launch 4 weapons every 15 minutes while the enemy is slinging dozens at you could be a problem.
If the longer time IS intended, then yes, a fast/slow option seems reasonable.

Already a long discussion on this topic, with a definitive answer from the devs.

We know that the Novembers could reload the entire nest of 8 tubes in about 15 minutes, which works out to slightly under 2 minutes per tube. Type XXI could reload its 6 tubes in 10 minutes, which is comparable performance using power-loading equipment. This performance is also in line with every other sim, from Fast Attack through DW.

The original value in the files was 30, and this new beta put it at 300....probably an extra 0 that wasn't intended.
