Not to mention the radar sets of WWII also were greatly affected by the vacuum tubes installed in them. Swapping those out could have a noticeable effect on how far a given radar set could pick up a contact. The battleship Kongo, for instance, was detected at a range (about 44,000 yards) far beyond what was considered "normal" for SJ-1. Kongo, additionally, was the only Japanese BB ever sunk by a submarine and the last BB ever to fall to a submarine's torpedoes.
