Additional notes
- The seaplane can't be recovered. I don't see any crane in the model reference. Maybe they just land somewhere then wait to be picked up by seaplane tender?
- When the ship is moving, the torpedo drop reticle become inaccurate. If anyone know the xml edit for straight bomb/torpedo fall (0 initial velocity), please let me know.

I cannot put into words how good this cruiser is, but there is one problem, I saw something similar to a self-guidance system on the anti-aircraft guns, but it does not work correctly.
