It is designed to carry a single 1-megaton nuclear warhead.

After years of research and investment, the United States has yet to produce a defense that can shoot down a single warhead.

The design of the system called for it be to able to intercept several hostile incoming missiles simultaneously with a single warhead.

With its single nuclear warhead, it poses less of a threat than multi-warhead missiles.

True enough, a single nuclear warhead would have sufficed to destroy it totally, but missiles of any kind were ruled out.

Early ballistic missiles carried a single warhead, often of megaton-range yield.

There was a single warhead of approximately 800 kilotons.

Mobile missiles that carry a single warhead should be allowed, they said.

It was designed to carry a single nuclear warhead and has a maximum range of 12000 km.

Even if this was successful, they would destroy only a single warhead.
