The models of the boats early on are quite crude and out of place (I wonder if they are from the same sim or are just put in from another for effect????)

1. They are not just simple textures on flat surfaces. You can see that on some earlier screenshots (note the reflections on the instruments):

2. The video is WIP, much like IL2 is. The video shows the game in DX9. The final version will support DX11.
3. As Oleg mentioned for his boats, they are pretty simple, because you will swish over them with 400kp/h.
Now think what you will see when flying by with 900kp/h. I promise you, you won't notice the difference, which boat was modeled with more polygons.
Of course you can always find something negative, if you search hard enough for the simple fact that nobody and nothing is perfect.
If you find something better or more realistic than SoW or DCS, please let me know. If it really think you could do better, get a 3D modelling program (several are free, some with free trial-period), build one and send it to them.
