On the other hand, if the missiles had gone off in their silos upon collision, that might have made it so a DD could break the spine of a BB. An Arleigh Burke class DD displaces about 8,500 tons, while an Iowa class BB is closer to 50K tons, with a good chunk of the difference being armor plating. Without some sort of extra kick, I can't buy a DD ramming a BB and doing what they showed on the screen.
