Large-scale targeted cybercrime can cause chaos even without a "Die Hard"-style "fire sale" that relies on bringing down infrastructure.
If random military families had their identities stolen, their bank accounts drained, and their homes flooded with harassing calls (at best) or SWATing attacks (at worst), you can bet that morale would suffer in the field. That's a level of cyber-crime that relatively unskilled attackers could bring. Do the same to any industry and you've done some damage. "Targeted crime" is a form of warfare.
