I think something needs to be done to make the PT more useful. Right now, it's only good for acting as an AA picket, which is in no way realistic, or a point-defense craft for ports. Since the PT's have to spawn next to the CV, it takes hours to motor along from the spawn point to the target. Even in the case of opposing fleets close to each other, at about 10k it would take 15 minutes for the PT to get into position to attack the ships.
One solution for this is to allow PT's to spawn at bases within a certain distance of the shore, or to have a system similar to vehicle spawning that places the PT a certain distance away from the carrier.
