Yes, the same Sid Meier who created Civilization. Originally a 1985 PC game by MicroProse, Silent Service put players in command of a U.S. Navy submarine in the Pacific Theater during WWII, hunting Japanese convoys and warships. Ultra Games was Konami's American publishing subsidiary, used to get around Nintendo's strict limits on how many games a single publisher could release per year. The NES version simplified the PC original's complexity for console audiences but kept the core tension of submarine warfare. The cat-and-mouse of torpedo runs and depth charge evasion.
