"35km is practically BB gun range. Deadly? Sure it'd be deadly, so would adding antimatter cannons in place of the deck gun—and it would be about as realistic."
It doesn't matter if it doesn't look right.
Here's how it should be done.
1. Press button. Timer starts.
2. Timer counts down and planes spawn over the aircraft carrier.
3. Give them a waypoint as you would with the scout planes on the uboat campaign.
Since when does it need to be realistic to be fun and challenging?
The harder part would be to give the aircraft carrier escort ships and maybe a CA,BC, or BB to follow it around for protection.
To help the issue with a max of 35km you scale everything down if you can't increase the environment. Drop all gun ranges by 50%. Considering that battleships in WWII hardly ever fired at max angle unless it was for shore bombardment.
I've seen mods for other games such as Pirates of the Caribbean 'build mod' that do things seemingly impossible due to the aging game engine. I know there's a way. I just wish I was better with programming language so I could figure it out.
