That, too, but I think there is a bigger issue than that: the foreign ships are, with Z1 as the sole exception, are all VERY hard to get, with only the German ships are buildable thus far while the rest are event-exclusive drops. Not exactly a high-profile internationalization if you ask me, though the jury is up in the air until the next (presumably) hellish event. Well apparantly they can't introduce the whole Fletcher-class (174 ships in total), they have to choose.

Also the Japanese devs will have to find a way to portray the ships, so they have to choose those with easily feasible records, datas and historical episodes.

You know, to me Z1 is probably the hardest one to get. It took me 11 days to go through all the expeditions, while getting Aquila and Warspite only took me 3 days.
