are there possibilities to update it? such as making it more lethal and allowing it to dive.
@Irobert55 eh, i don’t really care. I’m building stuff for a roleplay, not for points or fame. I already have 212s in said RP, i just needed something cheap for Submarine warfare
@Stellarlabs the thing is that the type 21 and 23 submarines are the predacessors to every submarine in military use since the war. also the 212a uses an engine that doesnt need as much of a heatsinc as the gotland. would be nice to se a 212a on the site.
Modern U-boat series =/= WW2 series
And the Gotland class is cheap, and this also is made to be cheap
@Irobert55 This is a successor to the type 28, a successor to world war II U-boats. The Type 29 is made to Be basically the swedish Gotland-class but with VLS capability
i woudl say the same things as @Grant321 and Gady13131 but why not a succesor to the type 21 or type 23? the 212a is already in service and probably better than your fictional unit so why not going to 212a,s and seawolfs granddad?
Cool
Nice
