Definitely. The only piece of information that is confusing me is that quote from Wikipedia about the "experimental 37 mm automatic gun". It might have been a modification of the SK C/30U but so far I couldn't find any information on it, and it wouldn't be the first time a Wiki article reports wrong information. I will check some books later today, just to be sure.

I agree. The only problem is that the standard gun equipment as seen in photos and stated by various sources, was already the top possible at the time for an U-boat. Any upgrade in game would be either totally unrealistic or a "downgrade" actually. The only idea I can think of, is the replacement of the stern gun with a slightly improved one, mimicing this (so far) mythical "experimental" 37 mm Flak mentioned by Wikipedia.
