I only saw this today, but I guess there is a least one recorded instance of a US sub being attacked by a kamikaze.

However, There are instances throughout the war of Japanese pilots flying their (usually damaged) planes into ships or other planes even before the Special Attack Corps was started. Maybe this was one of these.
