How many Gs can a average Heli launched or ground based atgm pull? They seem to pull a lot of Gs in game. Is it realistic?

#2

Depend on the ATGM

#3

Average, according to the game files, is about 5Gs or so. This sounds low, but ATGMs are usually pretty slow as well and tanks don’t tend to pull insane high G maneuvers.

#4

I mean sometimes atgms can track jets better than some air to air missiles

#5

Some modern ATGMs are semi-designed also for taking out things like Helis too and even when considering ground targets, a far more common target might be a speeding car or motorbike with a HVT rather than a slow moving tank.

Usually they tend to have more problem with losing missiles guided than exceeding its missiles G pull .
Due to most ATGM are slower than AA Missiles.
For example about losing missiles guided.
