The torpedo that hit Shigure was a dud that passed through her rudder without detonating, allowing her to escape into the darkness.

Hagikaze, Arashi, and Kawakaze burst into flames and either sank immediately or were quickly sunk by naval gunfire. All four Japanese destroyers were hit by American torpedoes.
Lang, Sterett and Stack turned to port to cross their opponent's T and opened fire as soon as the torpedoes started detonating.
The mode will be available to all level 12 players who have a Tier VI ship or higher. This mode will let you take one of nine unique Tier X spaceships into intergalactic battle, with each ship offering their own strengths on the field of space battle.
In the event, none of the Japanese ships present actually had radar and the looming mass of the island served to conceal the American ships from visual observation. Running from March 29 to April 11, the Space Warships mode will be live in World of Warships. The Americans were operating on the assumption that the Japanese had nothing to match their new centrimetric SG radar they knew that their older meter band radars could not differentiate between the surface ships and the island and presumed Japanese radars were no better. Dunlap, Craven and Maury fired a total of 24 torpedoes in the space of 63 seconds before turning to starboard and withdrawing at high speed, using the mountainous island to their east to help camouflage their movements.
