The American ships we removed all the Phalanx CIWS systems from and replaced with missile launchers that can’t actually intercept this threat?

CIWS on this thing would just turn it to a big pile of incoming kenetic energy.

Might couple the damage better than a conventional WH.

Hard to get WH fuzed right at that speed, and probably a nearly level impact angle.
