"AFAIK the EFP warhead requires extremely accurate engineering, rare materials and very smart seekers."

The russians are quite good at developing elaborated CE warheads. I doubt that an EFP warhead would pose a significant challange to them. Guidance is probably the
biggest hurdle to overcome when developing a top attack missile.

750-850mm CE penetration is a bit too low for taking out the most modern western MBT with frontal hits in a reliable manner.
Ahh but they didn't state that it would need to be a frontal hit.

Regarding EFP, older Kontakt-1/5 ERA proved to be useless against them, providing very lil resistances therefore even a low 600mm penetrating EFP warhead can penetrate modern soviet/russian MBT frontally. Newer Relikt/Nozh ERA provides resistances against EFP warheads.
