Actually, I think it is supposed to be a Type IX. I paused a few of the underwater scenes, and it looks to me as if the movie's special effects department took a Gato-class submarine model and filled in two of the Gato-class boat's six forward tubes, and two of its aft tubes, leaving four forward and two aft - the same as a Type IX - as well as putting in a U-boat conning tower and adding the mine cutter for good measure.
