[quote=AG124, I really was disappointed by the aircraft carrier selection for both the Japanese and the US - I guess the dev team ran out of time, but the US really needs the Yorktown and Essex classes, and the Japanese could have used the Akagi, Zuiho class, Junyo class, and maybe the Shinano. And if I were going to choose one carrier to represent the US carrier fleet, it wouldn't be the Wasp.

I just started my first career patrol out of Pearl, and there were 3 carriers in the harbor, 2 were Saratoga class (you can't mistake that big ass smoke stack), not sure what the other was. I was too busy qualking at the first 2, which were side by side. I did however use the external camera to see if the ships had their names painted across the stern. They didn't. I did however notice a historical error. On the 3rd aircraft carrier, they had 2 types of planes. One was the Helldiver, which is unmistakable by it's huge upswing tail-rudder, and the other resembled the Brewster Buffalo?? This was Dec 9th 1941. The Helldiver didn't come out until later in the war, and I wasn't aware that the Buffalo's could be carrier based! They should have been Wildcats, or a close resemblance there of. I heard there were copyright issues with some of the WW2 planes and metals.
