well i now that the japanes had ASDIC type sonar at the start of the war, and that this corte the US sub skippers totaly off-gard and that thay did have centermetric wave radar (the Mark 2 model 2 10cm SS radar enterd servise just in time for Midway) for more info on sush i can highly recommend Louis Brown's
