Preferred U-Boats

Alpha Von Burg · 06-08-10, 05:04 AM

Just opening this topic to see which U-boat you prefer...
Except the type XXI... ( it's too good to be on the list )

ps. U-Boats that are in SH3 only, please...

Hmm....bit of toughie, as I like all of them. But as i've had the most patrols in it, its got to be the workshorse of the U-boat fleet - the Type VII/C

Sailor Steve · 06-08-10, 06:07 AM

Type VIIs I think are the coolest, but I have a special fondness for the Type II.

Jimbuna · 06-08-10, 06:12 AM

Go to far off places with additional firepower and ordnance....Type IXD2

RConch · 06-08-10, 06:47 AM

Type VII\C.

Kapt Z · 06-08-10, 07:05 AM

Type VII. Quick diving time and great handling. Just looks 'right'.

maillemaker · 06-08-10, 07:40 AM

Whatever gives me the most torpedoes.

Type IX FTW

But also VIIC/41 in late war careers

Type XXIII for a very different ride

Fader_Berg · 06-08-10, 10:16 AM

The hardcore Type II, without a doubt.

FIREWALL · 06-08-10, 10:20 AM

VIIC for me.

comet61 · 06-08-10, 12:40 PM

Type VII B/C and the Type IXB...

robbo180265 · 06-08-10, 01:00 PM

Type VII/C for speed , manoeuvrability and great looks.

Type IX for torps , range.

red_scope · 06-08-10, 01:28 PM

I used to be a classic VII guy myself, but lately I find the IX a much sleeker looking boat, with extra punch. Gotta love that knife edge bow.

Dragunov · 06-08-10, 03:50 PM

Type VII/C for me also

I like my IXD2 cause its a sea cow. That goes on 250 day patrols. That survived a trip to germany in 1945. That escaped to Argentina-(thats my favorite part
