The veteran US sub Seawolf is believed to have been sunk by the destroyer escort U.S.S. Rowell in October 1944. No record of a Japanese sub undergoing an attack at that time exists.

In addition, the sub Dorado is thought to have been sunk in the Caribbean by a patrol plane after being mistaken for a U-Boat. She also may have been victim to a U-Boat or a minefield lay by one.
