Looks cool indeed! However i prefer to have the early VIIC tower configuration simply because it looks cooler and its the version featured in all the movie that had uboat one way or another. Allthought i might get the updated version sooner or later i do think it looks a little more like a battleship then a submersible. Also for me it symbolses the dimese of the uboat force.

It's also damned foolish; submarines were never meant to engage aircraft, their best defence is to remain hidden. The twin winter garden only adds to drag while submerged, which in turn reduces speed, and ups battery consumption. Not the best of ideas.

It was probably good for morale though...

Looks armed to the teeth. Still, I'm parcial to a B with upgraded wintergarden.
