Difference between TMO and ISP is probably the NSS_(SubType).sim file, specifically

11. unit_Submarine

If you look in there under propulsion and E_propulsion you'll see the max surface speed (using Gato as example) set to 21, max submerged speed is 9. Decks awash max speed will depend on depth (in one I note you have it at 8.7, the other at 8.38, shallower is faster) and both max speed settings. One "supersargo" I play with occasionally has surface max 26 knots, submerged 10 knots, that gives me 15 knots at decks awash flank speed. In other words the max speed at decks awash is a percentage of the max speeds in the sim file, probably the median between the two although I haven't run any tests to confirm that theory.

TorpX, one thing I've always wondered about;

StormConditions=9,0.1;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]

I note in his the number is changed;

StormConditions=7,0.1;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]

What exactly does that affect?
