As Yoda says - "look at me - judge me by my size do you?"
sadly most of these are flukes, but a few points
One single solitary nuke could evaporate the entire Nimitz Carrier group with one blast. - yeah and it would cost more that the entire group
A meteorite the size of Texas would wipe out all life on planet Earth - permanently. - yeah thats coz the dust cloud would block out the sun and the ground shocks would knock everything over. no sun no life. permantly is to big a word though, unles the world broke apart from the impact.
A single torpedo took out the Argentinian Cruiser General Belgrano. -Thats coz it was an american WWII cruiser not designed for modern warefare. Plus the argentinians had it coming.
A single Proton Torpedo took out the Death Star - nobody got up and yelled "not fair!" in the cinema... -thats coz it looked good from a storyline point of view.
