The clear windows with crew inside come with GWX. Others may have done something as well, but that's the one I know for sure.

Once, in the Med, I came across a small 5 vessel convoy which I then proceeded to attack. I picked out the largest & best target, a large merchant flying a New Zealand flag (sorry Lucy Lawless ). I hit her and just as she was sinking 3 Ju 87's & 3 Ju 88's appeared and proceeded to pound the surviving ships. One of the Ju 88's scored a near miss on one of the L-class AA destroyers which set her on fire. The other AA destroyer shot down one of the Ju 87's. I would have attacked the crippled destroyer but by this time all the enemy ships were on high alert and were moving too fast for me to get in to a good firing position. The other escort was also getting dangerously close to me so I decided to make my escape.

I don't see the Luftwaffe very often but I sometimes see convoys with damaged ships. Unfortunately they always seem to be on the other side of the convoy & always seem to be far too close to an escort to safely attack.

2.1 is the update to GWX 2.0: it has various fixes & inclusions. You probably should finish your career/game, uninstall SH III & GWX 2.0 then reinstall them & then update your 2.0 install to 2.1. If you try to update it while still in a 2.0 game you'll very likely have problems: crashes, etc.
