I have to say I assume thr are not the pld clunky LAW or even 2.9in m but the sophisticated targeted ni]mssles that fly to a ceiling above the target and the directly down upon it.. they are deadly and without the the quite helpless, without them, No clue what Branson and his fairies might send,

The world’s deadliest anti-tank missiles: Which ones come out on top? (army-technology.com)

Javelin MissileThe Javelin is a medium-range anti-tank guided missile developed by Javelin, a joint venture between Raytheon and Lockheed Martin. The missile is currently in service with the US Forces and has been combat-tested in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The Javelin is considered the world’s best shoulder-fired anti-tank weapon and 12 nations currently operate the Javelin under foreign military sales from the US. Each missile weighs 11.8kg while its command launch unit (CLU) and round weigh 6.4kg and 15.9kg respectively.

The Javelin employs a long-wave infrared (LWIR) seeker for guidance to destroy tanks, bunkers, buildings, small vessel and low-speed helicopters with a high hit probability. It can also be fired from tripods, light armoured vehicles, trucks, and remotely piloted vehicles. It carries a tandem shaped charge, enabling a maximum range of 2,500m.
