I hate to be a history nazi, but anywhen... The one time they tried to use the Argonaut (which was similar to Narwhal and Nautilus) as a regular fleet submarine, it promptly got it's ass handed back to itself during a convoy attack by a trio of Japanese destroyers, which was the worst single loss of life (105 men) on a US submarine during the war.

I enjoyed running Argonaut, Narwhal and Nautilus in SHI, and the boats were accurately represented; that is, they had two big guns, but were slow, slow-diving and unmanueverable. It was very hard to survive in them, which is probably why the latter two spent most of the war as running supplies to various places.
