I tried that a while ago with humorous results. I thought I had something because the DCs are about the only weapon in this game that has a configurable blast radius. I set one up to drop from the "Sea Lance", weapon fires just fine and travels over the target, once it gets there it even drops a DC, however these DCs are meant to receive settings from the air-plane that is dropping them, they can be fused to detonate at a specific depth, on contact, or both. When dropped by a missile, these parameters do not get set so the weapon is impotent. Further more, for some reason the "SUBROC" did not run out of fuel so it just flew around in circles for the rest of the mission dropping an infinite amount of harmless depth charges over and over again.
