The player boats are practically (shell and bomb and) bullet-proof, for the player's benefit... who wants to die in their first DC attack?... kind of like getting hit by a circle-runner torpedo and not sinking right away, if at all?... lol -
We did incur hull damage there, but it took a bit for the boat to sink. I have also been hit in a fleet boat, and NOT sunk. I'm sure you have experienced similar. The thing with Dark Waters, which is lurker's OpMonsun dressed-up of course, is that a lot of the boats are SH3 imports, and as such, their "damage models" had to be built, with some aspects / portions apparently overlooked... I haven't dug too deeply into them, but it wouldn't surprise me if even the IX-D2 isn't from SH3 also...
