'Padlock external ground targets', or whatever it is called, already works for ships - you'll need to use the 'friendly' one for your carrier, though if you fly a sensible approach pattern you should ideally keep it in view anyway.

thanks, Andy....i'm well aware of external padlock view, seeing as i have been playing this game since 2001, almost exclusively.
let me rephrase the question: can ship padlock be enabled from in-cockpit view?
currently, F4 is the default for padlocking planes, F5 for ground units. Can ships be added to the F5 function?
very seldom do you have scenarios with many ground and ship units together, it's normally either one or the other. it'd be greatly appreciated if this function could be added, especially for movie-makers as well.....
