Bloody XXI

Switched with my expert crew from '39 to a XXI. First time in such a vessel, and must say that I'm very disappointed. There are several historical inaccuracies and other problems.

-there's only 34 bunks. XXI had 50.
-torpedo loading times are 3 min each with expert crew. XXI should be able to reload and fire all eels within 20 min, but this piece of **** needs almost a hour of game time.
- snorkel tip is an airplane magnet, even with Tarnmatte. Better to surface for battery charging, then the RWR can be used.
- submerged range should be 630 km at 9 kn, but is only 250!!!!!!!

- crush dept should be 285 m, but depth gauge scale ends at 260.
- the real XXI could use the radar when snorkeling

Is the bloody beer can good for anything? Should I just scuttle it and return to the good old VII instead?

Is there a mod that would correct the problems? I'm currently using GWX.
