[edit] Up to spec

I changed these:

  • Lenth: 72.39 meters
  • Beam: 4.3 meters

based on Bernard Fitzsimons, The Encyclopedia of 20th Century Weapons and Warfare (London: Phoebus, 1978), Volume 23, p.2537. From there I also added #TT & guns. I must question that "max depth" number. That looks like crush depth, to me. More typically quoted is test depth; for a 1935 U-boat, I'd expect around 250-300ft. Have you got a firmer number?
