In addition, Sprint used a W66 low-yield, enhanced radiation warhead.

You are wrong. The A-135 Gazelle uses a 10 kiloton burst.

Oh my bad. Used to be 5 back in the mid-1960s, but I guess they modernized the warheads from the old ABM-1 Galosh systems...

Anti missile defense is mostly BS. I doubt any system will do better than shooting down 10-30% in any salvo

Not if you have an intergrated layered defense that shoots down the warhead and avoids the penetration aids.
