Would anyone happen to have tables of dive/surface times for GWX player subs? By speed, depth, time? Or simply rate by speed?

I have just realized that dive times in this game are probably the slowest of all the subsims, I have played. At 1kts down to 141M from PD has taken 30 minutes.

I remember SH2/PA where you could manually control the dive plans. Literally, you could dive like a brick of depleted uranium if you wanted to. Of course, the hard part was coming out before crush depth!

By the way, are these dive times at all realistic or are they just what is hard coded in the game?

Thanks.

PS: With everything which I can control in this game, why don't I have control of the dive planes? Why is my only option to control dive rate by speed? SH1 allowed you to manually control the planes with up and down arrow keys. It kind of reminds me of Sub Command in this regard - the graphics are there, just not the controls.
