Support Different type VII types stats/compared

I've looked on google and the rather shallow wiki but couldn't find anything. Neither did the (extremely over the top convoluted) stickies here give me any resources.

I'm looking for the in-game differences between the sub-types. Dive times, crush depths, fuel capacity, battery capacity, upgradability, etc., etc.

I'm not interested in generalised statements or anecdotes. Only mined, published or scienced resources.

P.S. running the Wolves Of Steel recommended mod package.

I can give you one thing you do not need a resource for...

The type A had one external aft torpedo tube. You can’t reload, and the number of torps are limited along with fuel.

And type 7C were used in the “black gap” and Operation Drumbeat. They had more fuel.

Hope that helps!

So why check external resources?
What a REAL 7c could do may not be the best settings in Game.
That has been debated for YEARS now!

You obviously haven't read what I asked. I even specifically asked for resources about the in-game subs (implying that I'm not assuming them to be the same as historical subs).

But thank you for assuming what I meant and not actually proving helpful.

Implying is a twisted road.
Why ask about in-Game if you want real world facts?
They are 2 different things!
I'd suspect you'd think GTA Cars are real world settings from your post.

Sorry to even respond.
Won't happen again.

Are you absolutely retarded or just trying to insult me now? I LITERALLY asked for resources on the IN-GAME SUBS.

I don't know how else to phrase it. You're the moron who keeps saying I'm comparing apples and oranges. You're the moron who brought up the real life historical ships in the first place.

All I can tell you that at about 175 m, your KDB will be destroyed (which apperaently is historically accurate), but you can go below 200 m in TwoS. I haven't found out the exact max dephts either.

But you could test it yourself. Save the game, start diving and see for yourself when your boat gets destroyed instead of throwing a fit and insulting people. This is a pretty friendly community, not a youtube comment section.
