Quad bikes are just as "big" as any other ammo carrier in terms of ammo supply. It's an ammo truck.

Some ammo carriers do have a lift capacity - though the quad bike is however a typo from when I copied over the original light vehicle. So it'll likely be removed in the next update. (the general guideline is no carry for ammo vehicles) - but a quick SQL search shows a few surprises there, that may need addressing...

Ammo containers (a different beast entirely) can resupply up to WH size 5 or so. Might be 6. Therefore some missiles will work. Ammo containers can be loaded as passengers of weight class 6 or thereabouts (ie in a typical jeep). Ammo containers have a small supply capacity as well, it will take ages compared to parking beside a supply dump.

Ammo container was upped in WH size to allow medium mortars, MAW and other rifle company weapons (typically WH 4-5) to be resupplied as well as small arms. Probably when the Weapon Size field was obsoleted?. Not many ATGM are WH size 6 or less. RPG-7 will likely resupply from them, RPG-28 probably not.
