can you elaborate cause i cant understand ? are you saying the ingame TOW is inaccurate ?

They are guided IRL, and they ARE guided in PR.

must have been a bug or something because i shot one in a training server and it just went straight after i moved my point of aim. i was just checking.

o i see what ur saying, yes they are guided in PR IIRC , but go so fast that you can guide that much, try at longer range.

I guess you could say it has a slighty faster flight than the vanilla version of the tow ^^

Hold down the fire button when you shoot the HAT, should be guideable after 150-200m IIRC.

What does IIRC mean?!

And i love the Tows, but i remember on Kashan. 2 enemy t90 was moving against my mech inf squad... i got slauterd

You can guide the TOW. It's not going to do a ninety degree turn in mid flight though.

Regarding damage, it's appropriate. The TOW is an anti-tank missile so it would only make sense that it can blow up a tank. They keep TOWs up to date as well. Secondly, any punk with a MG can blow up a TOW hummer so it's pretty balanced in my opinion.

It means 'If I Recall Correctly".

I love TOWs. They just feel so right.
