AI D3A1 val don't catch the wire on aircraft carrier Zuikaku, Shokaku and IJN generic, they land 3 points short of wires, then bounce to horizontal attitude, thus hook is too high. They do OK on Akagi, most probably because there's a wire closer to landing area. Maybe try do offset touchdown area on the other carriers ?
It seems to be weather dependent too, with rough weather they tend to catch the wires better !
