It did? It modeled that the CVs needed to turn into the wind? It modeled the time to arm planes, gas them, and warm them up (all below decks for the IJN). It modeled the time it took to respot the planes forward or aft for tyhe USN, or up on the elevators for the IJN? Can the IJN CVs only spot ~1/2 a strike force on deck at a time?
If planes had a CAP aloft, and they want to land it, they have to wait for the on-deck planes first?
All of the above is required for proper CV operations (even if merely abstracted so that operations are time limited, and only 1 major operation at a time---launch planes, OR recieve planes. Spot strike package, nothing else happens, etc.
That's what I mean by proper modeling. If it doesn't take 30-45 minutes to get a strike aloft at the bare minimum for an IJN CV (assuming no interuptions like having to launch/recieve CAP aircraft), then it's not accurate. That's why I think CV airgroups need to go away in SH4 CVs, they are all in the air all the time, it's silly.
