Well in the stock(out of the box) game night surface attacks are pretty much impossible even on a lone merchant.In mods like TMO or RFB, night attacks are possible given the proper conditions.
Pretty much you plot an intercept course, try to get withing 2500-3000 yards, use the TBT to sight your target, set the proper info into the TDC...send bearing when read to fire and then fire as you would with the periscope.If you are on auto target, you just point the TBT and place the crosshairs over the desired point of impact and fire.
Well in stock radar is impossible to dodge, ubi gave IJN great radar which they didnt have in RL.The mods have changed it to be not ass effective.Also, in TMO you have the RWR(Radar Warning Receiver) which alerts you if the enemy has radar and you plan accordingly.
The carrier attack was in early 44 so they didnt have radar yet.
I've never been hit by a battleship's gun so not sure, my guess is in the game no BUT one good hit would prob wipe out some key systems like your engines or fuel tank, which would leave you stranded and since there is no abandon ship etc, youre done.
