Are there any laser guided anti tank missiles in existence ? ie an operator could paint a target with a laser beam and then fire a missile, very much like the laser guided weapons carried by aircraft. If anybody knows put it on the net. ************************************************************************* * R SUKUMAR.....................(R2RS1@VM1.CC.UAKRON.EDU) * * THE UNIVERSITY OF AKRON - DEPT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING * * AKRON OH 44325 * * (216)434-6335 - (R) * * (216)972-6002 - (O) * *************************************************************************
