Even though the range was limited (3000 sm @ 17kn which should translate into at least 6000 sm @ 10 kn) it has the same offensive punch as the Typ XXI (23 torpedoes) and a significantly higher underwater speed (24 kn!) and endurance (202 sm @ 24 kn).
In reality the boats were converted to Typ XXI boats with normal Dieselelctric engines. Would be nice to be in command of this boat, even if it was just for a few months in 1945
