Realistically it’s the Khrizantema or Vikhr, none of the NATO counterparts are modelled correctly and drastically underperforming

the fake one, KH38MT
would say the Ingwe would be one of the best if it wasnt limited to a heli nobody likes and an armoured car nobody likes either
Assuming you are talking exclusively about ground to ground ATGMs. It has to be Khrizantema-S firing the 9M123. That thing can fire through smoke thanks to the radar and has a tiny profile when hulldown. The missiles are also very fast (nearly 3x faster than Spike and just shy of 2x faster than TOW) and also has better pen and damage than both.
Kornet is very good, but the most OP thing about it is that the BMP is the only ATGM slinger allowed to fire whilst moving (iirc) which gives it a huge advantage in CQB. The missile is also fairly decent.
Spike is okay… has the major advantage of being FnF, but being slow, affected by smoke and entirely at the mercy of where the centre mass happens to be, can be extremely hit and miss in terms of damage.
If you we are talking about A2G AGMs, then KH-38MT in every single respect, only the AASM even comes close.
Anything with a gun-fired ATGM can as well
Also SPIKEs and the Chinese FNF I think but I am not 100% confident
Forgot about those.
I didnt think they could, but also dont know either way.
At least for its BR, I think the BMP is the only one (despite sources for others saying they could be fired, it remains one of the only ones. Both the ZT3A2 and Stormer HVM I think should be able to fire whilst moving)
I like MIM-146, its actually pretty good against tanks
Spike simply kills no MBTs. Anemic, ingame at least.
If it were between the two, then Kornets. Spikes guide themselves afterall, and are mostly just non kill hits, just having a big advantage that is fire and forget
AGM wise, I’d say the KH-38MT
For other laser guided/beam riding ATGM’s, I guess the Vikhr or Mokopa

After a couple of matches in SPIKE armed vehicles (Namer and AH60) yesterday, i can still confirm that they are absolute menaces…
Spoiler
…If you adore hits XD,
I was fighting 3 truck-based SAMs, min 2 spikes launched on each, and not a single kill on any of them 😂
They can, but if youre going faster than like 40kph its probably not worth doing
