Answer 1

More idiomatically you could say 'avoid capture'

During a battle between the Greeks and the Romans, a captain scuttled/sunk his ship to avoid capture by the enemy.

 

In case you have any doubt:

On May 11, 1862, Confederate sailors sunk their own ship, the CSS Virginia in the James River outside of Norfolk, Virginia to avoid capture by Union troops.
