this response is assuming you have not modded speeds/stock and all in game.

1.what is the max speed you achieved submerged?
20 with snorkel 16-18 without snorkel
Quote:
2.Should snorkel release smoke?mine doesn't release...
no smoke is not realeased in stock and i haven't gotten far enough to to test if the snorkel releases smoke or not.
Quote:
3.if you have all albericht materials ,can destroyers detect you?
yes. the albericht materials just reduce the sonar ping reflection as they can still pick you up by the cavitation your screws make above 50-100 RPMs IIRC

4.i click hydrophone men I select option give me range to target and option 2 which I forgot what was ....but he tell me no sound contact although destroyer is 2000 m away
the hydrophone direction MUST be on the ship (the needle must be facing and ship must appear on the notpad) for the sonarman to give any kind of range estimation.

5.what is max speed with snorkel?
historicly they could not go to fast or the snorkel would snap off. in game you can go underwater max speed.
