Default Re: Problems with air launched weapons.

MLRS is devastating for counter battery missions - which is exactly what it was designed for. Buy a battery or two of MLRS, and don't use them for called fire missions, and watch your opponents OB artillery get wiped out.

I agree that air launched ATGMs are too inaccurate. For some reason, I keep seeing Mavericks consistently display a "49%" hit percentage, and consistently miss. Very frustrating. Even worse is when a Maverick hits a light AFV, and no kill. A 30cm 80lb HEAT warhead should brew up ANY AFV it hits, let alone something like a BRDM-2 that can be chewed up by .50 cal AP.
