<HTML>My understanding was Trident wanted to recover one of the two armored gun mounts that an XIB would have had as standard. But this cannot be a Type XIB in my opinion. I got a letter from expert and author Jak Showell that it couldn\'t be an XIB---that the 4 that were begun were scrapped after the outbreak of war. I also made a copy of some material from the U-Boot-Archiv stating no such boats were ever built, not even a prototype.
Best,
Craig
Also check Gummi\'s section on these boats...under Types, then Special Projects, or something along these lines....</HTML>
