DW does not follow the same career model as does the US Career.
the DW model is to play as Kaleun of a particular Type of Uboat until you are killed or your boat is retired. then you are expected to start another career with a different boat type.

Now....having said that, it IS possible for a Kaleun to offered an upgrade from one boat to another, especially late in the was when the newer-Type Uboats become available. Take care though, migrating from a Type 9 to a Type 21 is a huge change from an ocean-going marauder to a boat with two torpedos.

and that is how it works, more-or-less.
when i want to drive a German Uboat, i play DW and no longer play German Stock or Op Monsun or even SH3.

good luck, Herr Kaleun!
