Makes me think...

When you start a patrol, will you be expected to walk from the dock to your U-boat? If so, imagine this scenario (replace mental image with Type VII U-boats):



Now, I wonder, what would happen if you hopped into the wrong U-boat?

Well, you're gonna need to mod in a more modern dealer-supplied keychain. Just press a button, and the hatch on your sub pops open while you're still coming down the dock. Voila!

Flashing running lights and horn honking optional.

Wouldn't it be easier to look for the pink sub?

Well could be nice the possibility to call for help if your boat has heavy damage and jump to another u-boat when it comes to the rescue.
