This is the trademark of any kind of military simulation games.
Even Falcon 4 the best military flight sim has a lot of info classified, even the real flight model is classified so what ?
Unless you are a real fighter pilot on the F-16 you won't mind if the data in the simulation is not "real enough" and this doesn't take the fun away despite what a lot of whinners on the falcon forums go saying.
The same goes for sub sims, how much realism can you get when all the info is classified ? Only the people who served on boomers or attack submarines can notice the difference between real facts and what is depicted in the simulation (and they are of course not at liberty to discuss it).
In any case this lack of info doesn't take the fun away so relax and enjoy being a virtual skipper :|\
