I'm pretty sure I didn't see it in 1939!

Seems very similar to this, underneath U-534.
My guess is also some kind of Active Sonar device. (S-Gerat??)

Jeez guyes! Look at U 534! It seems the last patrol has been a little bit too long...

When she came back? And maybe Fubar could do U 534 skin for us... or... maybe not... Hull integerity doesn't seem to be... very high...

U-534 is in such disrepair. Some are trying to raise money to put her back together. From the looks of her it could be in the billions to do so. Perhaps a nice coat of tar to slow her demise is in order. Such a shame

I've been to the U-505 exhibit several times, above and below ground. What you point out is not part of the boat. It seems to be a support or something do with the move.

it is part of the boat, the balkan gerat as others say. it's modeled in the game too, just check the later war years.

Really? Kewl!

I havent made it pass the summer of '43. Not from getting killed but because my patrols last such a long time. The only time I head back is when I am either out of eels or low on fuel. I still stick around even after the mandatory 24 hr patrol in a area.

And with the GWX and its rumor of 'tough times' for the U-boats, it may be that I never hit 1944.
