Changes from Stock SH IV Version 1.4:

This mod changes the start date for The Balao class fleet boat to the begining of the war from both Hawaii and Manila bases in campaign mode for the years 1941,1942, and 1943.

The boat comes standard with SD and SJ radar. It also sports four 5"25 deck guns with 350 Low trajectory HE rounds each! All four deck guns will fire at surface targets.

Boat sits lower in water.

Surface speed increased to 23 knots. An elite crew will make her go even faster.

Max operating depth redline set to 165 meters. Crush depth is classified.

SHip surface range increased to 18,000 miles @ 10 knots.

Ship comes equiped with special LazyBoy Engine Telegraph.
IE: Ring up 1/3 speed submerged and go 2 knots for optimum Battery life. Ring up 2/3s on the surface and go 10 knots for optimum fuel consumption which is also best speed to recharge the batteries.

Ship as a whole will take 20% more damage. All that surface action tends to put a bit of ware on the boat .)
