I agree: The IX are are fine boats with a lot of firepower, but they are ugly as well! I hate their rising bow!!!

They are lone wolves, that roam the seas without a need for wolve packs. They're like snipers find their target get in a good position and take him out.

I love IX-B and C boats and their rising bow but is its speed and torpedo load that makes difference. with the correct tactics is a killer.

is very similar to U.S boats and i´m using big boats since SH1 and AOD .
