Where are they located, what country gave them a base of activity, what is "small"? Would we know it is "one-off"?
Immediately, stock markets would drop alongside the buildings. Beyond that, the scenario presented is unclear, except to say that American defense contractors would see a long-range above-average forecast, and speculators in that sector would be smart to drop a few dimes into it. Boeing/Lockheed would come out on top, would be my best guess.
