Thought of another one.

In SH3, by the end of the war, it's not unusual to find yourself under attack by PBYs, Sunderlands, Wellingtons, B-24s - you might have a dozen of them diving, banking, climbing, and generally buzzing around like bluebottles. Even though the late war is supposed to be hard, I think such swarms of a/c - particularly all the 4 engine bombers - are a bit too much, even unrealistic, especially in mid-ocean. Constant harassment by one or two at a time would seem more accurate. As it is, the AI keeps bombarding you with more and more until there are too many, forcing you to dive. I'd rather be forced to dive at the hands of quality, rather than quantity, on the part of the AI.

So in SH4 I'd like to see airborne ASW that's more realistically modelled, if that's possible given that they're going to use the same engine.
