Hi everyone. This is probably old news, but for any of you who don't know, I very strongly suggest you get the twin 20mm AA gun mounts fore and aft, if you can. I use them on my Balao-class boat and they are superb. Just make sure you have an ace gunner with a "guns" rating of 85 or better on each mount. That usually entails using a petty officer, which may not be the most realistic scenario, but, if you want to have the best protection from those pesky Zeros and Bettys, that's the way to go. I very rarely crash dive when enemy planes approach any more, unless there are more than two.
Happy hunting! Jeff
