Re: MBT's
Been sort of wondering why we haven't seen much of main gun launched MPADs.
While I'm no weapons engineer it seems it'd be pretty easy to come up with a heat targeting version. A couple sensors on the outside of the tank to lock the target then a rocket launched (the sudden acceleration of a gunpowder launched one would probably destroy the missile) could be sent down range. Probably of limited value vs aircraft due to the limitations of traverse and elevation (and that's probably why it hasn't been done) but should be great vs helos.
