Is it not possible to accurately portray the German Type XXI?

Apologies if this belongs in a different subforum. My brain hurts a little trying to unravel the mess of subforums for this game. Not enough coffee today perhaps.

I tried out the U-Boat addon with a handful of mods that make the Type XXI available, but it does not appear to be even remotely the same as the real thing. The Type XXI was supposed to be able to run off it's electric motors for days, and charge them within a few hours with its snorkel. In SH4 it seems to just be a normal submarine with nothing special about it at all other than a cool model. There is no snorkel, the batteries run dry very quickly, and it takes ages to charge them. Is something wrong or is it just not possible to accurately portray this sub in this game?
