Inporting AI subs from SHIV is not that easy and, before you ask it, new playable submarines are no yet possible.

But, despite some technical limitations, there is already a good number of ships, guns, airplanes and environmental units ported from SHIII/IV to SH5.

You might want to have a look at these excellent mods: Open Horizons II and Mehr Traffic, Nationen und Schiffe

does this have anything to do with the drm or the way the game is set up to track payer records?

Sort of...

for a start you can have a look at this short post: it contains useful links to tools and threads that you should study intently before actually starting to inport any unit.

Don't exitate to ask in case you need any help!

nah, I'm pretty sure that there is at least one person who definitely can do even the playable units

I might be wrong, ofc

It's just as I said in another thread - I don't believe SH5 yet deserves an 'easy win' button

can you tell me more about the problem with creating playable subs?

Stealing the answer from TDW:

Once I complete it everything will be possible.
Now that doesn't mean that one will be able to add new playable subs into the game. That will require an exe patch so that the game knows about these new subs

And that will take time to do....lots of time

an incomplete list of threads where the issue has been discussed:
