Vibranium in Marvel Comics is one of those unusual metals that enables cutting of adamantium.
That does NOT, however, mean that vibranium is more durable, or even AS durable, as adamantium itself.

Hulk has taken nukes before, correct?Still gets cut by Wolverine's claws.
Refer to World War Hulk storylines where he fights Wolverine if you don't believe me.
Morlun would get cut by Wolverine's claws, too.
He was strong enough to tear an Adamantium net apart. What's Thing or Abomination done that's on that level?

I'm beginning to think you're merely in love with this phrase.
"Vibranium-tipped nukes", "full-metal jacket ammo", "V6 engine" ...
I get it; it sounds impressive, but the reality is that explosions in comics, missiles in comics, even nukes in comics, often LACK the effectiveness of simpler but more focused direct-force attacks.
If your reasoning were correct, Hulk, having endured a variety of nukes throughout his days on Earth, should be immune to Wolverine's claws.
Is he? Or was even his powerful "World War" incarnation, who wrecked team after team and endured explosion after explosion, even to Torch's one million degree nova flame, made to bleed when Logan himself went against Hulk?
Even to go that far is unnecessary.
Whatever Wakanda's failings, Morlun has, in fact, been defeated in the comics.
Twice.
By Spider-Man.
The first time was essentially by radiation poisoning.
Spider-Man exposed himself to a dose that would be lethal to ordinary people, but within the limits for himself.
When Spider-Man then confronted Morlun, every radioactivity-tainted punch weakened Morlun, to the point where Morlun was soon begging for his life.
If he had that kind of reaction to Spider-Man, what's he going to do when the far stronger, and far more radioactive Abomination starts whaling on him?
Which is assuming Morlun even gets to Blonsky.
Perhaps you are not aware of the 2nd instance of Morlun's defeat?
Peter, near death's door, but driven by Mary Jane's life about to be taken by Morlun, impales Morlun with wrist blades (special transformation unique to this storyline; it's complicated), then uses his teeth to rip open Morlun's throat .
So we have the case of a guy harmed by hyper-irradiated people,
who can be cut by sharp objects,
and killed by a serious-enough throat-slashing,
and begs for his life on being pounded by an irradiated guy with Spider-man level strength,
going against a team whose members have all gone toe-to-toe with the HULK, one of them actually STRONGER than the Hulk in several of Hulk's base-level forms (Abomination).
How do you think this is going again?

Nothing they did really slowed him down O_O
Show me anything Team did that can compare to that.
Strength wise : he ripped through an Adamantium net
Durability wise : he survived the entire arsenal (that included Vibranium nukes) of the most technically advanced nation on Marvel Earth
Your turn.

so?
this is current Morlun, not "The Other" Morlun
As for the bombs, mortars, missiles, tanks, etcetera ...
Abomination dealt with the bulk of that from his very first appearance.
AND matched and beat the Hulk:

Ok 1) If a character is dead we use the most recent incarnation.
2) Morlun is not dead, more like banished.
3) Morlun from the other is the same Morlun that tore Wakanda a new one.
4) Spider-man only managed to harm him because his stingers got magical properties and so far magic's the only thing that worked on Morlun.
And 5) Discussuion on whether Morlun or can't get cut is irrelevant. He can get cut by Wolverine's claws just like he was cut by BP's vibranium spear. The thing isit won't do squat to him. He can either heal anything or (just a guess) become immune to physical attack like when he tanked vibranium nukes without a scratch. Then there's the ability to become invisible and undetectable. Wolverine won't even know he's there unless Morlun chooses to show himself.
Where was I going with this? Oh right... Morlun wins.
