All what is shown in the game in the 3D environment, runs in the particular resolution.

But everything that runs in 2D ( loading screens, menu screens etc.) must be adjusted manually by the mod creator to a specific resolution. The creators of the available widescreen mods have done this only for 1360x768 as a common resolution.
Turns out that is completely correct as I tested it. I changed resolution in the d3d9.ini to 1920x1080 and the 3d screens (interior, exterior, Bridge view) are all rendered in 1920x1080 (wow). Other screens are obvioulsy no longer correct but largely usuable, depending on what is important to you I guess you can play the game this way.

(edit: centerline in some things turns out to be off this way, like in the periscope view when you lock a target)
