Hood's Roll Rate In The Water

Does anyone know how authentic is the motion of the various ships through the water is?

I've been driving the Hood around. In heavier seas the roll rate, side to side, seems too rapid for a ship of that size. Is the roll rate simulated for effect or is it based on an "aquadynamic" model (for lack of a better word)?

Were the real Hood's 15" guns stablized, like the gun in an Abrams tank on the move. If so it this modeled in the game?

Excuse me if these questions have been asked already.

I don't think you are the only one who has noticed that. Even the destroyers and destroyer escorts have a roll rate when you start to fire the 5in and 4in guns on these ships. I think also do that corvette. <_
