I was talking about the deep penetrator bombs but I can’t find how large a crater they make and what effect they have on the ground.

I don't have a lot to go on about deep penetrating bombs other than from videos I've watched.

My sense is that as the bomb bores deeper, the amount of overburden increases. Surface cratering will therefore reduce as the bomb goes deeper since more and more material has to be displaced.
