NLAW misses moving targets

Been testing the NLAW because, well, you know. On stationary targets it's doing fine. Moving targets are usually misses. Sometimes it explodes before the target. I can't believe all the hits we are seeing in Ukraine...

 

Well they are likely cherry picking the hits (not much value in showing misses).

 

The weapon doesn't really have guidance per se (i.e. its not an ATGM). It makes an initial assessment and then flies on that path.

 

Great for static targets or things travelling in a straight line. Not so good with something zig zagging, etc.

 

Smart AT4 / Panzerfaust 3, but not a MILAN or Javelin.

No, our NLAW has a bug. I think it's got fixed for the coming 4.3 release.

Good to hear. Because I also tested the rpg-29 and PzF 3 and they all scored hits and kills with moving targets. Any change we get to fire these small AT weapons ourself in the 4.3 release?😉
