[REQ] AA guns and shells

Well its quite frustrating when you see surface ships defend against planes in SHIV... look at videos from WWII (for example youtube): the sky is black with smoke from AA-shells, fire and smoke everywhere... and SHIV?
Well once I've seen a small puff-cloud from a shell... but you gotta be lucky to see one... so they are ingame, but why don't they always appear when ships fire at planes?
The sky is too empty and clean when ships are fending off planes... there should be much more action.
Is there any way found yet to improve the situation?
Any way to increase the smoke-clouds from AA-shells, to make the sky around ships appear more dangerous for planes?
Or is it, that the explosions only appear when a plane is hit by a flak-shell... so that it's basically no timed fuse like in reality but a proximity-shell? (maybe the missing proximity-detonator from our torps?)
