As someone pointed out here, next time go in the the hanger doors on fortified hangers.

Tomahawks used a vertical dive manuever to punch through the aircraft structures. Doors aren't always open and VDM is easier to accomplish than level attack.

I wasn't thinking door open but that they would be weaker. Also, I think they have munitions that can punch through a fortified roof but I don't know if they used them. I saw youtubes where Tomahawks seemed to take out concrete buildings with ease.

It's always easy to 2nd guess everything, though!
