I don't know why though. Surely, they could, in light of the fact that the plywood PT boats had a 37mm on the after deck late war...
i meant to say why didnt you create an option for the combo of 40mm plus 5" (or 4") deck gun as you did with the 20's and the deck gun?

"We have heavy flooding sir!", etc... Next release does have an on/off solution for better approaching home ports... top secret hush-hush kinda stuff though...




PS: you could try submerging the boat to turn the APR-1 "off"...
i like your idea of an on/off or the capability to remove the device.
