(but at slow speeds, this would probably be not noticeable... even if, IIRC, removing the deck gun had a beneficial effect on the underwater speed...). But maybe you can't do otherwise to simulate a faster dive, because of game limitations (as always)...
Said slightly … around 0,5 knot better speed, that’s quite nothing, but for gameplay attraction… anyway we can’t find almost anything on this hull modified…unfortunately.
Diving time should be +- 5 second better
