One thing that I would like to see is a more realistic representation into how the Harpoon works in real-life incorporated someday into DW. The Harpoon in DW is modelled so simply. There is no way to give it the ability to hit below the waterline, nor execute a pop-up attack. I know there are more options, but these things would be necessary to give it more realism.

My friend at work showed me Janes F-18 on his lap-top the other day. Janes F-18 did model a pop-up attack option, Bearing only launch, etc. in their Harpoon.

So I was wondering if this could be upgraded at some-point to give the Harpoon more realism. The one in DW is good. I just think this is one area that needs improvement.

Any other thoughts?
