If they fired anything bigger than a Panzerschreck I'd be amazed.
Some interesting info he

So they jury rigged a small tactical rocket launcher
on the decks of three small coastal submarines, an act
born of desperation no doubt since all 3 boats were destroyed
when the Soviets overran Konstanza in August/Sept 1944
U-9 was sunk by aircraft at Konstanza
U-19 was scuttled off Turkey in Sept 1944
U-24 was scuttled at Konstanza

Well the rockets launchers certainly seemed to be larger than a
Panzerschreck.
Now we come to the important part - were you amazed (as you said you
would be) when you read that?
Yep , its always nice to learn something new.
