Abstract Researchers have achieved notable advancements over the years in exploring ship damage and stability resulting from underwater explosions (UNDEX). However, numerous challenges and open questions remain in this field. In this study, the research progress of UNDEX load is first reviewed, which covers the explosion load during the shock wave and bubble pulsation stages. Subsequently, the research progress of ship damage caused by UNDEX is reviewed from two aspects: contact explosion and noncontact explosion. Finally, the research progress of ship navigation stability caused by UNDEX is reviewed from three aspects: natural factors, ship’s internal factors, and explosion factors. Analysis reveals that most existing research has focused on the damage to displacement ships caused by UNDEX. Meanwhile, less attention has been paid to the damage and stability of non-displacement ships caused by UNDEX, which are worthy of discussion.
