Torpedoing moving ships

I was mainly thinking of deck crew / Landing Signal Officer models and animations, but ships aren't completely out of the question. There's a horrible shortage of capital surface combatants on all sides for the Pacific theater, but just as much missing gameplay of their interaction with the air war. Air Boss direction and contact with planes over the radio, good dynamic Ship AI, lots of small things that would add immensely.

The whole thing with N-G is laughable if it wasn't so incredibly insane.

LSO interaction would be great for sure. I remember Aces of the Pacific had the little animated guy in the corner of the screen giving you the information on how well you were landing it.
