It is not uncommon to see stupid and blatantly unrealistic AI Japan attacks on places like Kuwait, Panama etc. while important parts of DEI and the Malaya are still not under Japanese control. I know that the AI has unrestricted naval range and it will probably not be changed, but at least tell the AI to ignore such places when there are many other targets in near vicinity. Not only those strange attacks break the immersion, but they hamper the AI, too. In the worst cases the AI is repulsed, then reconquers the province, then loses it again etc., which means more wasted troops and more lost convoys...
