And one hole in the pressure hull and your sub becomes a really slow and underpowered surface destroyer because it cant dive anymore.

If WWII Hurricane machine guns could penetrate a preassure hull, why would we need modern depleted uranium shells just to penetrate the shell of a tank? Hurricane machine guns were designed to shoot down other planes, made of either thin aluminium or wood and canvass, not several inch thick steel.
IN the game, I was down to 50% preassure-hull damage after a plane made just two passes! That makes all encounters with planes in the Campaign lethal. That's not only unrealistic but it kills the gameplay stone-dead.
