2 questions

1. GWX assigns 11th flotilla to the UK's eastcoast, but I somehow think this is not realistic for the type XXI, which has a range of 11,000 miles. You can get there on flank speed. What would be a more realistic area, is some information about the plans for XXI avaiable?

2. Type VIIc vs Type VIIb - why was VIIc more popular? Was it cheaper to build - it is slower underwater, less underwater range and the only thing it does better is crashdive.
