Talk:Shiva-class nuclear missile

too small
while I understand why they HAVOK mines would be around 30megatons, it would seem that a nuke designed to fight ships well over 1km in length, and govered by a couple of meters of titanium armor would have more punch to it.

sources?
where did the 30 megaton yeild come from?

Yield is too small
The current yield of only 30 to 80 megatons doesn’t make that much sense. For one thing Archer Missles would probably be equipped with a 30 megaton HAVOK warhead for the purpose of anti-ship warfare and it takes hundreds of them to just down the shields on a Covenant Carrier.
