Not sure which DDs these were but some had Y-throwers. BTW, I am using TDW's depth charge splash effect and disturbance Mods but have no idea if either of these effects a DC damage zone.
I think you just got lucky, it has happened to me before but have been other times, mainly in my noob days when I became fixated on a target and didnt realize the DD was on top of me, they dropped all over me and either sunk me outright or caused serious damage.
