The use of proximity fuse will increase the realism gameplay if it is incorporated into the game instead of just using 'vectors' or bounding boxes for flak. I am sure that 'raycasting' can now be done in the GPU in hardware by both ATI or nVidia.

This would be feasible specially if we would have Oboe or Gee (radio beacons) in the game as well.

Proximity fuses, Oboe and Gee were late war devices, at the time of the Battle of Britain (BoB) none of those were in use. Maybe in later SoW releases, but please not in BoB.
