Simply common aircraft in use for specific roles at the time (with, again, the possible exception of the Buffalo) .
I meant that the allied planes in SH4 and the u-boat expansion do not have their correct names, instead being called, generically "Long Range Bomber," "Torpedo Plane," "Dive Bomber," "Fighter," etc. Japanese planes are given specific names such as the zero, betty, etc.

I had assumed the snorkel was a standard on u-boats and didn't know that they were mostly used only on Atlantic boats.
