Default Tambor/ Gar

Hey fellas, just curious about these subs. From everything I have read, they state that the two classes were "virtually" identical and that some Gar's were referred to as Ts.

My question is, what constitutes a new class? If these boats are so similar, why did they make two different classes?

What exactly were these differences anyway?
Thanks!

Well, in game they share the same files for all performance; the gar seems to have a different skin and also differs a bit in terms of the equipment that is/can be attached to it. They are, however, virtually identical.

Some books refer to them as the same class.
