You vastly, vastly underestimate how hard it is to do what you just said. Consider the inverse square law, then consider how hard it is to illuminate things underwater at a depth where there is little to no ambient light. Consider the limitations of sonar and other technologies at extreme distances.
Then extrapolate that in three dimensions across a major light trafficked area.
I get that militaries keep high-tech stuff secret, but what you are proposing is more akin to magic or teleportation than anything reasonable.

Sure sucks that Argentinians died, but it would suck more if 1000 US sailors died and we lost the next war. https://theconversation.com/how-to-find-a-submarine-no-its-not-just-a-case-of-flicking-the-sonar-on-33343 https://theconversation.com/how-to-find-a-submarine-no-its-n...
