I think(and i hope) the difficulty settings also adjust the enemy AI/Sensors. My first career i played on normal and i could kill a task force with 3 destroyers with the deckgun and they did nothing. I also could kill enemy airplanes till i had no ammo left without much risk of beeing hit. I now started on hard and the first airplane i decided to attack hit me so hard that i barely survived. Not much later i ran into the same kind of taskforce i destroyed with the deckgun in "normal". So i decided to try it again just to see what happens now that im on "hard". Right after i surfaced both DDs in range started firing all they had at me. they actually did hit quite good too and i was destroyed pretty quick. though the whether was pretty good this time. Last time i could kill them without them doing anything it was in fog. Maybe its a AI bug in fog. Or maybe the AI is just not set good enough to get you in fog on "normal" difficulty. Just my thoughts. I dont know how it was with the difficultysettings in SH3 so i might be totally wrong and they really only adjust the realism settings.
