It appears that the Doom's mines can be spawned on the remaining hulks (when a ship is destroyed), thus causing an instant mine detonation at the mouse cursor and damaging any ships nearby. Obviously this means that nearby ships can't defend against it, which is game-breaking.

It looks like this happens only when the ship breaks into multiple pieces, and this can't be done with the "main" piece, but can be done with the other pieces.

To reproduce, take a Doom, go into simulation or a battle, kill a ship, and if it breaks into multiple pieces, try to spawn a mine on top of each of the remaining hulks. One of them will have the usual distance check (preventing mines from spawning too close to it), but for the others, the mines will be able to spawn on top of them, detonating instantly.
