but target point, as i understand it, can be set via pod or the map, and launched at without LoS as is currently the case with SAL Brimstone. Maybe its me being awkward but i wouldn’t consider that LOBL, as you could use the ground minimap to set target point in enemy spawn or on a scouted target and fire from behind terrain, for mmW to LOAL if/when it sees a target in the area.
TV/IIR need to lock either a point on the ground or a vehicle, with both requiring LoS to launch. And I think this form of laser designation targeting wouldn’t allow the rippling/multi target ability most people are wanting from an F&F Brimstone?
