60MPa is about 8700 psi btw.
Modern anti-concrete missiles:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GBU-57A/B_MOP
>The MOP is reportedly able to penetrate about 18 m of reinforced concrete with a compressive strength of 5,000 psi.[34][35] Iranian domestic research has produced concrete exceeding 30,000 psi, which could sharply reduce the bomb's effective penetration depth.[33]
The all-or-nothing heartburst punch she's aiming for would be significantly stronger than a modern air force bunker buster if those figures are accurate. Rumors are American munitions tend to underplay their real effectiveness so that adversary states will underinvest and underbuild themselves.
Now, everybody knows that one of the things that makes a mech a mech is the ability to easily defeat the modern United States military and to show up the United States' highest value weaponry and vehicles. But, this does have limits. A mech will outmatch the SR-71 in speed, the F-16 in missile delivery, the U-2 in astronautical recon, the B2 in stealth. But in terms of armor it will not outmatch a missile silo. Mecha armor is measured against the United States M1 Abrams Tank Munitions of Current Year. Every mech is only obligated to be able to shrug off the Abrams' AP round, which is at present the M829 "Silver Bullet," which cannot perforate 17+ meters of reinforced concrete. Hence the need for a dedicated missile capable of same.
Therefore, I concede. A sufficiently motivated delinquent giantess who retains equivalent relative agility to a peak human athlete could outbox the standard, Abrams-defeating mecha. So long as they aren't super wank mecha shown to be able to tank a bunker buster and keep on trucking.
