Agreed! In the stock game, a pair of aircraft would come out of nowhere, and be vectored straight at me. No Jap Task Force or Air Base within 1000 miles. Not even Merchants were present.

I finally finished my War Career using TMO 1.9 and RSRDC 502 (never leave home without them). I was able to do most of my patrolling on the surface, especially during the last couple of years of the war when the Japs lost control of Mid-Pacific. I felt air attacks were quite reasonable. If I got careless and stayed on the surface in waters I knew to be Jap controlled - well, there's always the 'C' key.

My biggest bugaboo was destroyers or patrol boats. Having three warships vectored at me from 15 miles away when I'm at 400 feet and running silent , was a little much IMO.
