If you're asking is it wise to go from a VII to a IX then it depends on what kind of patrols you like. Quick patrols that are close to home and require a minimum of fuss: stay with the VII. Long patrols that can become boring as you cross the Atlantic, trying conserve every ounce of fuel to stay on station longer and having a larger torp load: go with the IX.

If youre wondering whether to go to an IXB or IXC: go with the IXC slightly better boat IMO.
