#4 Does it really take a direct hit by 1 MT warhead to knock out a hardened missile silo?

My gosh me, that's a thousand TONS or 2 million pounds of explosive. So you could level a major city and not dig a hole in the ground deep enough to disable a missile silo?? Wouldn't the zillion tons of debris piled on the blast doors be enough.

Please explain, my Combat Engineer explosives expertise can't comprehend why?
