This game enforces a hard “lock before launch” rule on all F&F missiles for tank to tank engagements and requires your selected target to be both visible to the missile seeker and gunner optic (not commander for some reason) before giving launch authorization. It is very annoying and for vehicles with commander optics well above the roof it causes this issue.

Because the missiles seeker doesn’t see the target. You are seeing the target through the commander sight that is higher up than the missiles seeker, the seeker is blocked by the tent so it cant lock the target.
