had or did

Could you please tell me which one is correct "had or did" and "just like or as" in the following sentence? Also, does it sound OK?

Without her help, he would have sunk just like or as the Titanic had or did?

Thank you

Now explain this to me: why did (past simple) when the Titanic sank before he nearly sank?

If you can use past simple (did) here, why not here:
