While I have no direct knowledge of it, I suspect that with the much more complex and detailed damage modeling of SoW, that hitting ground objects, or the ground itself (CFIT) will have much more realistic results.

As I recall from some long ago post on UBI, the current instant explode terrain strike was chosen as the best compromise given the computer power of the day, and the limitations of the game engine itself.
