I agree that the timline should probably end around the late 50's/early 60's. As for not having "period craft" to shoot at, freighters and tankers didn't change a whole lot in a 15 year period after WWII. Plus, we would be hunting Soviet, North Korean, etc. vessels that would more than likely be left-overs from WWII. Japanese ships would now be allied/neutral and could be limited to the "modern composite" ships found in SH4 (since we sank all of the old ones).
If the modders are succesful at importing sub models into the game, then I don't see why 1950's era warships couldn't be added, too. I think this could be very realistic with a combination of historic and what-if scenarios molded into a campaign.
