Lines: 20 Approved: military@amd.com From: Suku I just finished reading Larry Bond's "Red Phoenix", in which US and S Korean forces face a N Korean offensive across the DMZ. Bond's description of the anti-tank battles centers around "Dragon" anti-tank missile teams. Is this for real? (all his other stuff is). I thought the TOW was the main anti-tank missile for the grunt. Could anybody throw some light on the Dragon ? I also happen to have read about the TOW and other anti-tank missiles being 3rd generation systems, what would a 4th generation ATM be ? Thanks in advance, good book by the way, must read if you have'nt. -- R SUKUMAR R2RS1@VM1.CC.UAKRON.EDU THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON DEPT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
