Great
![]() Also could be possible mod a VII/42 , despite this boat never went to a war patrol because was cancelled . From u-bat.net The VIIC/42 was designed 1942-1943 and was intended to replace the then retreating VIIC, she had a much stronger pressure hull (with plating thickness up to 28mm) and a bit better offensive punch (16 torpedoes against VIIC's 14). Her diving depth was designed to be 200 meters with 400 meters as crushing depth (VIIC figures: 100/200 meters). These boats would have been very similar in external appearance to the VIIC/41 but with two periscopes in the tower as type IX. All contracts for the VIIC/42 U-boats were cancelled on 30 September 1943 in favour of the new Elektro Boat XXI. Technical information for type VIIC/42 Displacement: (tons) 999 (sf) 1099 (sm) 1363 (total) Length: (m) 68,70 oa 50,90 ph Beam: (m) 6,85 oa 5,00 ph Draught: (draft)5,00 m Height:10,00 m Power: (hp)4400 (sf) 750 (sm) Speed: (knots)18,6 (sf) 7,6 (sm) Range: (miles / knots)12600/10 (sf) 80/4 (sm) Torpedoes:16 4/1 (bow / stern tubes) Mines: 26 TMA Deck gun: No deck gun Crew: 44-52 men Max depth: ca. 270 m (886 feet)
