When i invade harbors the ai seems dead! Its like shooting fish in a barrel. Not even parked destroyers make a move. Is this normal?

I don't know how it works in stock, in TWoS (or any other pack using IRAI mod) airbases within range can be alerted when someone detects you and reports it, and will launch airstrikes as a result. The same applies for warships btw, a lonely steamer sending a distress call might bring destroyers upon you if they happen to be close enough for intercept.
As for harbors, SH5 AI doesn't handle land well from what I've heard and this causes AI ships to behave weirdly in ports. Another issue might be that ships you refer to are "docked" (anchored, no steam, most of crew on port leave, ship not fit for action) which makes AI inactive.
