Let's just pretend that all the "fantasy-waffe" planes in IL:2 1946 never existed, along with the re-flagged King George IV.

But, the idea of being able to reflag ships is a good one.

Would it be possible to have user-designed camouflage schemes and flags for ships and perhaps other ground objects?

After all, you can have user design skins for aircraft, so why not ground vehicles? That way, skinners and mission designers could create theater or campaign specific skins for them and could "reflag" ships as necessary for various scenarios.

It's not even unrealistic. Some varieties of ships served with multiple nations. Others were close enough in appearance that they can stand in for different types.
