I have a TERRIBLE confession to make!

Jager, I usually switch the speed to 7 or 8 knots instead of using the general 1/3 half, full speed selector. You can specify exactly how fast you want to go if you hit the green button next to the controls. You'll get 5km range or so with the type 2 boat and decent speed. Thing I thought was funny about all these boats is the underwater max speed never changes much (minus the type 21 of course). The type 2 handles the best of them all underwater IMO. Thing can stop and go really quick, none of the other boats can do that. You tell the type 2 to go full speed while at periscope depth sitting still and it leaps forward! Pretty cool
