"Although neutron bombs are commonly believed to "leave the 
infrastructure intact", current designs have explosive yields in the 
kiloton range,[11] the detonation of which would cause heavy destruction 
through blast and heat effects. A yield of one kiloton is not high for a 
nuclear weapon, but is still nearly two orders of magnitude bigger than 
the most powerful conventional bombs."
