VIIC and VIIC/41

So finally I have made it towards the end of 43. Damn that was a tough year. I had to abort two patrols due to damage, and hardly ever returned to base without at least one scope knocked out. On one patrol i crawled back without either scope, hydrophones, or radar. Average tonnage scores dropped down from 50 or 60 kt to about 20 kt, although i did get 98kt on one patrol when i chanced upon a convoy with two liners in it. I also sank a bogue - that was satisfying, but then i lost all my sensors as just mentioned.

Anyway, I am now offered a VIIC/41 for the first time. On the equipment screen, the offered stats for the VIIC and VIIC/41 show no differences at all. This can't be right. Does anyone know what the differences are and whether it is worth the upgrade cost?
