Yes, those are fine and covered by "arbitrarily larger". So about
50 000 tonnes for Mjolnir-A and 7000 tonnes for Mjolnir-B if made from
solid tungsten.

Both of them would be comparable in minimum impact energy to nuclear
detonations -- obviously with Mjollnir-A being comparable to larger
weapons. The exact details would depend upon how fast they hit.
