If you're going to operate near along the GIUK or in the Med, stick to the VIIs

I disagree with that I run an IXD2 when it comes available and I think it's a great boat to take on the RN it might have a dive time of 42 seconds but it sure holds a lots of torps more than a VIIC and if you can't get a sub to pd in 42 sec when a convoy is 25-30 km away then there's something wrong.
