Type IX-B boat for example

Long range or more speed for the same range
High surfaced speed (19-20 Knts in calm waters)
6 torpedoes tubes, 4 forward and two in stern
Good AA guns
Only takes a few seconds more in crash dive compared with VII boats.
23 torpedoes loaded compared with 14
Great for convoys during the happy times.

And Finally i sneaked into the MED with a IX.B boat in a succesfull patrol and survive to return to my base again

.

but my case is special, i always use big boats (sh1,sh4) and i know where are the limits for this tipe of big sharks.
