No.  KV armour shouldn't affect missiles or PT damage.
It can be argued that missiles & PTs simply 'eat' their way through
armour and hull alike.	With nuclear or fusion missiles, the extra mass
can 'feul' the reaction whereas PTs could be a mini-fusion
reaction/plasma reaction or matter/antimatter shot (depending on
preferance)  that 'eat' any energy directed at them (all that random
energy should overload or bypass any energy defences).

It mostly depends on how you view the actual attack technology.

One question I am having a problem with - should Kra'Vak armour protect
agaist missile, and torpedos? In MT it states that Kra'Vak armour gives
..significant protection agaist both projectile AND energy weapons
fire.. 
should this include missile and torpedos? If yes how?
