Hi,
at the beginning - sorry for placing this here instead of scenario section or database request section.
In cold war database request section Ive found U-boot type XXI request, it was very intresting sub, using many years after war. Few Russian subs generation after WWII were based on XXI f.e. ZULU class.

Why I start this topic?
Maybe someone will be interesting to create scenario like this:

1946 something was happened in south atlantic (f.e. USA sub missing)
1946 operation HIGH JUMP started (real operation - check www)
1947 US carrier group reaching Antarctica, but XXIs waiting under the ice
(in WWII no one XXI used weapon in combat situation, now it could be possible)
1947 something was happened in Roswell ...
1950 preparing to next polar mission
1950-1953 break for korean war
1954 Operation Deepfreze (also real operation) started, and nobody know when ends. Officially in 1957, but in 1958 two nuc explosion were seen over BASE 211 region ... something was happened

something you can find in attached file, but you can create something totally different, everything above was only an idea

if XXI data needed Ive found this:
6x533mm tubes (front) 23 torps totally

range(Nm) --- speed(kts)
surfaced
11500 ----- 12
15500 ----- 10

submerged
420 ------- 4
340/365 - 5
280 ------- 6
110 ------ 10

max speed 17,2 underwater!!!
