IXD2 don't know both times I left port with one of those I got bombed 100km out from Bordeaux and had to limp back home minus half the hull integrity and most of my diesel

hope that helps
It's time to resurrect one of my pet peeves: engine upgrades in SH3 are totally bogus. Unrealistic and wrong.

The Type VIIa had no superchargers, and never got any. Type VIIb and all later u-boats came stock with superchargers. The 'Unsupercharged' speeds in the game are the speeds they actually made with superchargers. The 'Supercharged/Upgraded' speeds are total fabrications; they never went that fast.

Question: there's a Type II upgrade? I didn't know that. I'm pretty sure no Type IIs ever had superchargers.
