"Six years to early".....sounds like the words of a man covering up his own inadequacies
By 1945 Britain would have had better Ships and sensors to fight not just the U-Boat but the Z-Plan ships also.
HMS Vanguard would have sunk the Bismark and Tirpitz no problem. KGV class ships were merely a stop gap until the Lion Class was built. Even then the KGV Class had better armour protection than Bismark and the 14inch guns were more accurate. Combine them with better British Radar and you have a winner.
As for the TypeXX1 U-Boat....was apparently not as good as has been made out. Its technology was never proven in battle and may have been a waste of resources. Looked good though.
