A destroyer that wants to ram you is far from suicidal.
He wants to sink you.
"The desire to attack submarines underwater led to rapid destroyer evolution during the WWI, which was quickly equipped with strengthened bows for ramming..."
And to quote my old Aikido instructor: "In response to the attack, first, get out of the way."
