TOW vs.Tank

2. The Bradley is using its own gimped version of the TOW.

For 0.85, a new "mobile" TOW standard is in place and will be used for both the TOW HMMWV and the Bradley. The damage of these VS Tank armour are,

2 to front armour
2 to side armour (one putting the tank in critical and/or disabled condition)
1 to rear armour

Nice, very nice.

I had 2 of my allies armor destroyed in seconds by ennemy TOW humvee's the other day, quite disturbing :P

SACLOS ATGM's shouldn't really be that fast. They're not supersonic and it takes as much as ten seconds for them to reach their maximum range - plenty of time for the firer to track and steer the missile on its target, but also plenty of time for the target to maneuver behind cover or send a sabot round traveling at mach-4 back to the firer.

Sounds realy awsome

Will the tow HUMVEE be getting replaced by the ATGM stryker? is there one in the works?

Sounds pretty realistic to me

What about a Mark-19 Humvee with a 360 Shield ( Also have the 360 Shield for the 50.cal)

Nothing wrong with the TOW Humvee. If the TOW humvee has a good crew, they can dominate the Chinese armor. If the opposite, then its good bye TOW humvee. Me and another estonian guy have been dominating with TOW Humvee on Qwai(0.87) and the enemy had crappy APC crew. They had no situational awareness and as far as i was told, they ignored the team chat.

Same thing for the spandrel on both chechen vs ruski armor maps(fools road and kozlesk), if there is no communication between inf and armor, both units are doomed, but if the inf is telling to the APC/TOW unit where the enemy armor is, that team will dominate the battle. Cooperating with ur infantry is vital to winning the battle and staying alive.
