RFB uses the latest-known historical values for all "enemy" (i.e., Japanese) shipping from the ONI manuals. In general, this means 1944 data for merchants and 1944-45 data for warships. Perhaps surprisingly (or maybe a testament to Allied intelligence-gathering) these values translate very well to the game.
