Default Why must I always play VII?

I did a few searches, but haven't found it...

Is there a way I can play a type II for the Naval Academy? I tried opening the mission file for it and replacing the type VII with a II, but when I loaded it, I was in a VII...

Any good ideas?

1. You simply must play VII.

2. You don't have another option

no, you just can start your career in a type II, if you begin in 1939.

As far as I'm aware you don't have any alternative in the training academy.

Seems to be harcoded, even deleting the uboat from the mission and adding a new TypeIIA has no effect. Player still ends up with a VII. Any AI TypeII's added to the mission do end up in the mission ok - so its just the players sub thats hardcoded to always be a TypeVII .
