Will Rising Sun be upgrade?

Is it to late to upgrade Rising Sun?
I have a gripe about the Japanese. Historically, Japanese troops had exceptional moral. They use to take 75% casualties before their troops began to show signs of morale problems.
Second, Japanese troops had superb infiltration skills. They would send troops around the enemy to flank to attack the enemy in the sides and rear. Historically, the Japanese would side a smaller force to keep the front line busy. Then the flanks would attack. They use to do this down to the platoon level.
In Rising Sun I see none of the above. First the troop morale is the same as allied morale. Seeing troops turn tail and run at first sign of trouble is just not very Japanese. This is frustrating as a Japanese player.
Second, the AI usually just attacks down the middle. When I play defense as a US Marine I never see flanking attacks. I remember one Marine who fought in Guadalcanal was quoted saying that, “It seems that the Japanese were coming up from the ground.” Also, if I play Japanese, I should be able to sneak past the enemy line with my troops. Then when I attack from the flanks or rear, I should get a bonus for doing so because the morale of the troops should be affected when the troops feel surrounded.
So is there a chance that Rising Sun will be upgraded? Or is there a Mod that can do the above? Maybe I can upgrade the game myself?
