It would still be a kill as it is the option of the country owning the ship to raise it, repair it and modify it. At least you would have put it out of action for a considerable period - like our Battleships at Pearl Harbor. Only two (not counting Utah that was no longer classified as a BB) didn't come back. But they were still "kills".
