Was it only the attack scope that had this feature or did the obs too? I took a quick peek online and in my VII sub book, and only found pictures of attack scopes with it.

I made up a real quick mod with all the attack scopes changed, but if the obs scopes should have it I can add that too. All thanks to RFB's find of course.

Yes, this is something I'm not sure about. I have seen one photo in which the caption claims the periscope pictured with the wires is the observation one, but the angle at which the shot was taken makes this conclusion a shaky one. I'm going to keep looking to see if I can find more conclusive evidence.

Its only the attack scope that had the twisted thingy. Just read u-boat war patrol. It features a page that cleary shows (and also writen) That only the attack scope featured this to reduce the periscope wake by sucking the wake into the water a bit . But since the observation scope was only used in bad weather or night-time and thus the wake would make no differance it would not need the thingy.

Got this badboy working, Looks great.

I cant understand why they just didnt put this into the game, But then I'm only a simple soldier and cant fathom vastness of the marketing mind.

I also heard that UBI got slated for this carry on, Having all this stuff in game then realsing it as "Downloadable content"..............No proof, So I might be wrong.

I thought someone would actually have to make it for a mod. If it's already there but turned off I'm guessing that the first boats didn't have them, and it was a later addition.

If that's true then we need to find out exactly when they were installed, so we can put them in at the right time.
