I think it's worth reiterating that you don't have to destroy the shipyard itself to render it useless for building or even just repairing ships. Take out one or more of the power generation, transportation, raw materials, workforce, or even food stocks in the area and you render more than just one industry virtually useless. The trick is knowing exactly where to hit to cause the most, and longest lasting disruption.
It's not like a few hundred years ago when if you had a suitable beach, a nearby forest and a few dozen men with axes and you could turn out warships...
