If this is indeed an error because of the date, it's most likely a very easy fix.

The availability date for a given boat is in the flotilla.upc file

[Flotilla 1.UserPlayerUnitType 4]
ID= F1Gato
NameDisplayable= Gato class
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-04-12, NULL
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= Gato
UnitTypeCommonality= 10
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= NULL

[Flotilla 2.UserPlayerUnitType 7]
ID= F2Gato
NameDisplayable= Gato class
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-12-01, NULL
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= Gato
UnitTypeCommonality= 10
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= NULL

Flotilla 3.UserPlayerUnitType 5]
ID= F3Gato
NameDisplayable= Gato class
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-12-01, NULL
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= Gato
UnitTypeCommonality= 11
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= PearlHarborCommand

Just change the 42 to say 40 that should solve any date problems.

I assume you are saying that if you start a career in say, a porpoise
do a patrol return to base get upgraded to a Gato, do a patrol return
to base then get retired because the Gato is actually not available.

This would actually be a hard coded error but changing the date should
act as a work around.

Anyway just my thoughts.
Cheers
