Just hold them back from the firing line in a dip or suchlike (so they do not get blown up) and shuttle empty teams back and forwards using the now unloaded land rover, or the team's own land-rover. if the firing line needs to move - get into the rovers and shift.

A few cheap land rovers or "baby" APC like the Spartan/armoured hummer are a real force multiplier for missile teams. They allow you to shoot and scoot and redeploy rapidly. Allocating about 1 ammo container per 2-3 teams gives the missile teams extra staying power.

All my ATGMS & Recoilless AT rifles all have Warhead size of 5 or higher except the M-72 Law. I thought ammo canisters could only resupply up to WH size 4?
