beyond that you are testing the unknown.

besides... i dont even think subs could really measure any depth below 250m

i mean you got to hand it to those Germans... we are talking about a U-boat design from the mid 1930's capable of diving to near 900 ft

i mean compare that to the US Subs... their "test depth" was nearly twice as much as the US Sub's test depths across the board.

With today's technology, subs should be going 1000m deep at 50kts no problem. Somehow they don't... but I believe that there must be an explanation for it... maybe the lack of necessity to go that deep?
