I wonder if the 21 type subs had a longer life span.The antisub warfare i think was more evolved then the subs contrameasures.
If you've read that, then you've also read about the hapless souls who had to make multiple attempts at returning to port. Planes jumped them in Biscay to the point that uboats were "phoning in" saying they were trying "one more time", and requesting escort (or at least the Luftwaffe to get off its arse and do something about taking back the Bay).
