This seems to work:

(1) Note, the date back in part of your prior patrol. (Adjust your renown if you don't want to be so constrained.)

(2) Set the Patrol_0.cfg date (bottom of file) to the date you want to start your patrol via a text editor.

(3) Use the date calculator to compute the difference of Date.2-Date.1. Let that be X.

(4) Start SH3 Commander and the DAY IN BASE to X. Launch SH3.

(5) Go to the office. Do your crew work, upgrades, and torpedos. (Note that by toggling back and forth between torpedos and something else you can get an unlimited load out of whatever you want.)

(7) Go back to your office desk. The current date will be beyond your desired patrol date.

(8) Start your patrol. The patrol date will be exactly the date you had set in #2. Effectively, you will upgrade and sail all on the same day. However, you will not move backwards in time or be carrying upgrades upon return which exceed the current sub configurations for that date.

Thanks for your help!
