Why, in God's name, would you want with a Type XXI uboat for..???
The only advantage that sub had, was being able to stay submerged for a long time... until the crew needed fresh air, to live. As best as I recall, at any rate. Torp's were limited worse than the Type II's... & did not carry reserve torp's that the crew could reload with... once the fish were fired... it was automatically... back to port.
Now, the Type XXIII, was a much better option. It did carry reloads, & had the same long submergence capability of the XXI.
Just to be clear here.. NOT denigrating your interest in it, just asking...
