Yup, '43 ain't all it's cranked up to be

Altough, if you do make a mistake and you are detected at a shallow depth the likelihood of a real wallopping is much larger than in '40.

From '44 onwards tough, things become a drag, simply because you have to submerge most of the time because of the AC cover. Not much fun farting about the North Atlantic at 2 knots, eh....
