pretty close no matter which boat you choose. the last six classes are virtually identical in their fuel usage.
keep in mind, this is NOT real life, it is in the game.
i suspect that you can monkey-around with the usage by varying the Propulsion factors in the boatclass.Sim file but why waste the time.

How close are RFB and TMO in performance? In my first campaign in RFB, I bent on standard without really paying attention to my speed which was 15kts.. In FotRSU, standard is 10kts and the best fuel economy. In RFB, 1/3 rings up 10kts which is still the best performance for a Gato.
I had burned up 1/3 of my fuel by the time I reached Hokkaido. That patrol was cut short because I had to return to Midway and fill the bunkers, then back to Hokkaido to finish my patrol. A lesson learned in assumption!
