just out of curiosity- did you find find , on average, most ingame equipment was much above thier real specs or far below? im guessing far below purely for gameplay reasons?
Well i didnt check them all but one example is the british radar Type273.

It had a range of 25 nautical mile.

1 nautic mile in metric system is 1852meter.
1852x25=46300meters or 46.3km

The overall range ingame is 25km for radar
and if i look specific at the Type273 it have only a range of 8.5 km so its more than 4 times weaker than the real one.
Maybe all sensors are scaled down from begining so it can fit the game.

But i wonder how difficult this game would be if the sensor had their actually value.
