US fleet boats - best frontline sub of ww2?

I knew there had to be a trade off... that would be interesting to see. I'm curious though if the exceptional dive times of the u-boats came with more risk of that than the slower, but perhaps "safer" 10 degree dive used by the USN.

Then you get a game like SH, and they codify the u-boat fast times, but with none of the downsides, and codify the slower fleet boat times, with none of the increase in "safety" (no chance of sticking the props out).
