If your using SH3 Commander the crush depths are normally varied but if not she should manage somewhere in the region of 250 metres.

The escorts have usually reached 'elite' status by 1945 so you correct in stating how tough it is....as it was in RL then.

I know the GWX manual says 210 meters, but I can press it on to 250, is that right?

Weird because the destruction depth of the XXI submarine was around 330 meters.
