An interesting story. The development of the Proximity fuse. And the use of them changed warfare forever.
They must have come as quite a shock to both the Germans and the Japanese. If I remember right we used the new fuses in our land artillery shells against the Germans to devastating effect towards the end of the war. And the Japanese?? The 5" AA guns, when using the new proximity fuses, were devastating. In Britain the new shells increased the hit percentage against V1 buzz bombs 3-fold.
I dive into carriers all the time in the game. Just yesterday I was shot down while 12,000' on the fringes of a CV group. Just like in real life was, in late war, flying around a Yank CV group is very hazardous. The game is modeled correctly. I'd never take a 262 anywheres around a CV and if I was over water I'd be constantly on the lookout for them.
