I downloaded the USS Arizona and have viewed it in Sketchup and Max.
The image below is from Max.
Most of the fine detail of railings etc is done with simple wire lines. These disappear when exported to Max.
For IL-2 all detail has to be made from triangular polys.
The level of detail is not up to that of the existing IL-2 models.
I am not familiar with the details of the Arizona but I guess the hull shape is wrong, particularly the bow shape.
Secondary guns, AA guns, ships boats, etc are missing.
Given the significance of the ship, if its going to be done it ought to be done right.
