I agree with you all. Careful though of their deck guns. They are functional. I had a nasty expierience once , because I decided to engage a S-class with my deck gun. I sunk her but at cost of two men dead and 35% damage. That of course ended my patrol.
You will also notice that when you sink them they dont appear as kills on the map.

GWX AI Subs are not in the recognition manual because they are classed as environmental units.

Do you still get credit for the tonnage and renown?

Yes , you do take credit and renown. I don't know how much though. They appear just fine on the patrol report.

K-61 NEVER underestimate the power of loo roll!

Anyway, I've never seen an enemy sub before can they dive and use torpedeos?

Nope. They're stuck on the surface and use their deck guns. (dunno about flak guns)

I wouldn't go so far as to say that...they can cause you quite a bit of damage and destroy you on occasion if your not quick enough off the mark.

They can fire their flaks as well.
They can not dive or launch torpedoes.
