The short answer is yes. Remember the Antonovsky Bridge?

Here's some pics to refresh our memories.

The Antonovsky Bridge was eventually dropped using M31 rockets with 200 lb high-explosive warhead.

So, the real question is "How many ATACMs will it take to make the Kerch bridge unusable?"

Are ATACMs missiles accurate enough to punch holes in the Kerch railroad bridge?

Hopefully, we will know the answer in a couple of weeks.
