UBOAT. I've been playing SH3 (not a lot, too old for me), SH4 (quite a bit with OpMonsoon Mod) and SH5 (Wolves of Steel mod). I prefer UBOAT over them all as it gives you the full WW2 "Das Boot" experience. The Silent Hunter games are all about stalking the enemy and sinking him, evading the retaliation, rince and repeat. This is fun and all, but I was always missing something, and that was crew interaction and immersion. With UBOAT you get a real feeling for what it's like to serve on a submarine, much more than with any Silent Hunter game. So yeah...it's quite buggy at the moment, not nearly finished, but for me already so much more my thing than Silent Hunter. I am not saying "better", but more my kind of game and more "uboatish" in my eyes.
