The Type IX were also less manouverable and took longer to dive as compared to the type VII.
In short, is it worth the trouble of making a new sub for SH5?

As for the type II: It was a boat designed not to stray too far from the coast. If the Type II were to be introduced into SH5 then new short-range missions would have to be made.

Those or just my 2 cents though.

The LAST thing we want is more options!

in my american version of the game I have a type IIA folder with everything but a .dat and 3d files. it even has a .sim and a .zon.

in the NSS_Uboat2a.cfg it is even listed as human playable.

Yup its in there...

Guess the devs were working on it, but didnt have time/budget to complete it, so they left it in there for us to continue on

Yes!!! Let's bring back the Type IX, my personal favorite of all the uboats, imo it seems to be the best and most versatile sub they had.
