With all due respect to the excellent piece of work

IMHO, in a sense it is this kind of "realistic, done-their-homework fiction" that is the most dangerous. You know (or at least think) they did their work, so you are inclined to trust them as if the data they provide is real. And a lot of it may well be. But if they decide to "tweak" something for story purposes, well, you'll be the last to know because it is so realistic the new curve looks just as natural as the real one and your BS filters don't work.

I just said to be careful, that's all.

Besides, remember, this is Senshado. They generally have trouble hitting tanks, let alone doing this kind of stunt.
