Immediately One Swordfisch will be redirectd to you, as your position is now known to enemies. As the Catalina have long-range-radar you get detected long before you can see the Catalina. The detected-Sub-indicator will stay red until after some time you get the 2nd Catalina.
This above procedure will cleanly show that the game is using Air-radar, since Visual can not see you.

So, this re-inforces my assumption that
once an enemy unit detects you, all other enemy units (including ships and aircrafts) will instantly know your exact position. This can be seen in the U-505 mission for instance: once a destroyer detects you with ASDIC, the Avenger aircrafts will drop bombs on your position although they can't see you.
