I can recall reading at least one patrol report of a Japanese aircraft diving out of the clouds and strafing a sub before it had time to react, so yeah, it did happen in reality.
Also, the SD radar won't always report every contact, so be wary of relying on radar too much. There is no substitute for an efficient and vigilant watch crew.
