Yes and no. The game itself cheats all over the place, including the way the weather affects the gunners. In an actual 15 m/s wind it should just be getting choppy enough to preclude using the deck gun, but that's as high as it goes in the game. I use the 'Big Waves' mod, set at 2x, and just imagine that it's doubled. It certainly looks that way. On the other hand the flak guns, which are tied to the deck gun where the weather is concerned, should be enabled at higher sea states, so that's another problem.
Another place the game cheats (for you newer guys) is the engine upgrades. The max speeds attainable with "unsupercharged" diesels is wrong. Well, actually it's right, but for the supercharged variants. The Type II and VIIa didn't have superchargers. The VIIb and every Type that followed did, and they weren't optional. You couldn't "upgrade" them.
And if we're going on about cheating, don't even get me started on the external cameras.
