A recent post by Fernando De Cicco on the FB subsim group:

Some users tell the AI ships in SH4 run as crazy ducks when an attack starts, and see this as a bug. See the real thing and comment....
Musashi and other Japanese units vainly try to evade air attack.

I wanted to share it here as I think it also applies to SH5/IRAI.
As much as we want AI-controlled units to behave cleverly and AI strategies to go smooth, warfare pactice was full with examples of things going the wrong way. I have read many reports of ships colliding with each others (in convoys, in ports, during enemy attacks, etc) or succumbing to enemy fire, planes crashing while attempting an attack run, escort and taskforce units being caught totally unprepared, etc.
Not saying that we should aim for that, quite the opposite, but maybe pictures like the one shared by Fernando will help us filling the many SH5 gaps the next time we will see something silly going on in game
