How deep have you gone with a VII/B?

I went 250m testing, took a few percentages off of my hull. At least now I know I can dive to 225m to stay 50m under depth charges.

Once I sank to 310 m with heavy flooding and I needed more than pure luck (and all of my pressured air) to come back to the surface... only to be rammed by a destroyer.

It was in GWX and in SH3 Commander I had randomized crush depth turned on.

I think I once got it down to 265m. We did a "u-96", that is, a failed run through gibraltar. Battle damage sank the boat until we hit the rocks at the bottom. Unlike Das Boot, I was unable to survive the eventual flooding...

In a VIIB (1939) 225 meters is the deepest I have tried, and that is without "random crush depth" setting checked.

In SH5, I went over 1000m... shortly before imploding...
