Of course you should. That's like asking "I bought this Barbie, but didn't any any of the playsets, it should still be just as fun right?"
Every simulation game like this ships in a poor state missing many features. What it DOES ship with however is the ability to add those features in to improve the game. This is
not the same as shipping an "incomplete" game or "shipping half a game and expecting the modders to fix it" as many will complain. Simulators like this as designed to extended by modding. That's why we have so many amazing tools available to do it. Not modding is truly "doing it wrong".
You've been suffering with this game since you got it, mostly since the game, as shipped, is in pretty sad shape.
I suffered for about 3 days before I found enough mods to change the game to how I wanted to play it and haven't looked back.
If you look at every item that you complained about, every single one of them has been and will continue to be upgraded, tweaked and fixed by modding the game. Even with full patches fixing every bug won't change the basic game. Modding will.
So yes, of course you should mod. Not modding Silent Hunter III is limiting yourself drastically with how much fun the game can be.
