For 1938 it is a bit early to have an IJN IFF, even if its on a carrier.
The target tracing installation on top of the tripd mast is also a part of the fire-control suite for IJN Battleships, and cannot go alone anyway, it needs to be used together with the direction controller and speed controller. For the timeframe I'd say is better to put an RDF up there (since it also appear you are lacking one).
Overall they look nice :D

These look great, though I see a lack of anti-air searchlights for night battles, though that particular feature may be more a quirk of the total war scenario of World War II than a necessary peacetime innovation.
