The one I used for my SH3 sound mod has the click. It is still available at http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/

Many of the sounds used in that mod were included in GWX for SH3. I don't know if the depth charge sound was one of them.

It sounded like more of a crack than a click.

IIRC, I read somewhere long ago that the double sound is caused by; the charge detonating....click/crack.....which instantly vapourises the water in the centre of the explosion creating a vacuum, water rushes back in to fill the void.....the roar or boom after. I might be wrong on that though, but underwater sounds are quite different to those we hear through air and things can sometimes sound pretty unusual.
I have always heard that the click was the depth-setting detonator going off just before the charge. I don't recall reading any official statement, though, so I too could be wrong.
