I don't understand an airburst that makes a Shock wave that travels at 10-50kts? But lots of military crew have experience traveling through local shock waves from air bursts. It's not the shock but the shrapnel that you worry about.
I initially thought the same thing, i am now wondering if the OP means KiloTonnes perhaps?
