I always seem to have trouble getting
out of Tokyo Bay when I get this mission. Seems like about the time I'm almost home free I hit a spawn point for DDs. This could've changed in a more recent patch; I haven't done a Pearl-based career in a long time and maybe this doesn't happen with 1.3.
Anyway - wanted to add that the unmodded game will often (in my opinion) give you some fairly silly mission objectives. There's no in-game penalty that I'm aware of for failing to complete them, you just don't earn as many renown points. I usually decide to punt a mission objective if I think it's historically implausible. Although there were periscope recon assignments during the war, as AVGWarhawk says no boats penetrated Tokyo Bay proper, so I usually content myself with sinking ships (go figure).
Still... it can be fun to try.
