Given the likely targets for cruise missiles (AGM-129, ALCM, GLCM, and TLAM-N), they'd likely be ground bursts. Things like command bunkers, ICBM silos and launch control centers, sub pens, etc. would require ground bursts or near-ground bursts to do the job. A W-80 or W-84 warhead (200 KT) would be good enough given the accuracy of such missiles.
