(No. Captain Andersen survived.

Unfortunately, on December 30, the Kestrel was hit on its starboard side by two Yuktobanian sub-launched cruise missiles off the western coast of Osea. Despite his ship's extensive hull damage and rapid listing, Andersen ordered the Razgriz to take off and get to the safety of the air; he then ordered all hands not conducting aircraft launch to abandon ship.[14]  In line with maritime tradition, Andersen was presumably the last person off the sinking vessel.[3]  A short time after the end of the war, Andersen was invited to dive in a submersible captained by Marcus Snow on the wreck of the Kestrel. He died of unknown causes shortly afterwards.

So he survived. That's it. It's from Ace Combat Wiki.)
