The two modes of a Javelin Anti Tank Missile
by Smoerble on Nov.28, 2011, under Battlefield 3, Tutorials
This tutorial is mainly for the Javeline Anti Tank missle in Battlefield 3.
Some facts: The FGM-148 Javelin exists in real live. It’s a fire and forget rocket system: the crew (two men) aim at a target, lock it, fire and the missile finds the target alone, even if moving.
- One rocket (= one shot) costs 40.000 US$
- The reusable launch unit costs 125.000 US$
- The missile can reach a top height of 150 meters
- The launch unit has different modes of sight, while in Battlefield 3 you can use only one (infrared) sight mode
- In Battlefield 3 you can use a SOFLAM to target an enemy tank and lock on through obstacles. In RL this is impossible, you have to have a line of sight on your target plus you cannot use any secondary system to lock on targets
In BF3 the Javeline Anti Tank missile has two firing modes: direct and “top attack” fire. You cannot switch the modes directly while using the Javelin.
