Well, i dont use the type XXI. I wanted to at some point, but thesedays i just have ZERO interest in it. at any rate, 5 to7 kt silent running a cheat? Personnaly i don't think so. One that that isn't modeled in this game is cavatation. Cavatation makes noise. More advanced propeller designs make less noise. It stands to reason that the type XXI would have less propeller cavatation then other uboats, thereby allowing it to move faster underwater with less noise.
