No because RSRD has it's own guns system. They still work!
RSRD uses a kit bash narwhal for the body, but the guns are the same. They are the same guns on any sub, but instead of choosing fore or aft, you are given both.
Actually as a test I wanted to try the two 50 cals you get at the start of the game. The one time I wanted to find aircraft, and wouldn't you know it none would come close enough to attack.
Finally a couple wandered in closer. I went to battle stations and at medium range I put the 50 cals at fire at will!
Both times I hit them, I saw the smoke trail as they flew off, and they missed me. I don't know if the 50 cals messed up their aiming or I just got lucky. The Narwhal isn't a fast diver so I am experimenting with different play styles. Maybe battle stations then dive. That way men are on the deck on the 50 cals until the last minute.
One thing I did notice was that RDRD only gives the Narwhal a handful of specific missions, while say the Porpoise gets lots and lots of specific missions. So for myself, I manually converted the Poropises' missions so that the Narwhal does more than just patrol. You can find tutorials on how to edit the missions on the forum, but the process was pretty intuitive. Copy and paste then change the name and value (F1,F2, for example) to the new sub.
I also changed it in my flotilla so I start in Manila. Saves the fuel!
