Rene,
Excellent question. The total number of both sides combined is still pretty small, but much larger than I would have guessed.
In 'The boats' section there is a section on U-boat fates, and under that a section on U-boats sunk by allied subs which provides some details on the 21 lost this way. Here's the link: [www.uboat.net]
In the conning tower area there is a section on the Allies, and Allied warships hit by uboats which include 11 allied subs by my rough count. Some are just possible and not definate.
I haven't reviewed them all myself (yet), but I would hazard a guess that most were hit while surfaced.
