All it does is to give you accurate target's course estimation at distances beyond active sonar and periscope/stadimeter range. Stock radar cannot do this. This is very useful because you can get initial fire position sailing surfaced and not being spotted by enemy ships. Later you can submerge to carry out your attack. Possibly Japs did not have RWRs at that time which made American radars so deadly asset.

PS. Does this mod work with RFB 2.0?

I'd be inclined to ask this question in the Release Thread

Yeah, I have already looked at this thread. This mod probably does not work with RFB. What a pity...

I don't know, I've never tried it. Certainly there is no version specifically for RFB yet and if the version out now did work with RFB, you'd lose any interior changes to the sub.

Exactly and as far as I can tell, Japanese never had RWR
