I actually wouldn't mind seeing a percentage damage or something to tell us when it is about to become a submarine.  

CV damage control would be nice as well - fires going out, single guns coming back online after a period of time, etc.

Would also like a siren to sound just before cv turns. LSO / lights would be neat too.
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

Everything except the radar and the CV itself comes back on the fleet. Even the other ships.

I've seen it pop back up whole and intact, but I haven't seen it come up piecemeal, as if the damage control parties are fixing one thing at a time.

It would also be nice if the CV damage model stopped takeoffs while the ship was on fire, which is the first thing that a damage control party would work on.  Once the fire is put out, then air operations can resume.

Just a thought...
