These missiles are crazy OP. Once you find your target and lock on, it's only a matter of time. Once it connects, it's a definite kill -- no matter what type of build it is. It's also really expensive... And best used on a proto caldari logi. Sure, it takes time to set up, and well... Human error affects it's accuracy and effectiveness..
It only works against ground vehicles, and the air variant doesn't really work well... So keep that in mind. These are also the only missile that can be destroyed; so if you have a militia navigation system expect militia results. Don't worry though, leveling your navigator costs no skill points, but like eve... It takes time. Some people have natural boosters, so they might be able to reach proto in two battles, that could be you!
The payload is crucial. If you have a proto caldari logi, you get a very good bonus, a stronger payload. Imagine a null cannon shooting at that pesky double hardened GV.0 with a plate and a single rep... Wouldn't that be perfect? Stop imagining when it can happen for anyone! This is all you need:
- A LAV (preferably militia to save isk. This is the only militia you can use)
- a proto logi (bandwidth is crucial to your payload strength. Preferably Caldari)
- a basic, advanced, and prototype Remote Explosive (all 3 gives best results)
- a good understanding of the battle field situation and layout; and extreme levels of patience (your navigation depends on this)
Sure, Tank pilots might say you have no honor but.... Wouldn't you want to help put the tank out of its constant torture and pain? Look at how many people abuse that poor thing with AV and the pilot keeps cracking his whip and forcing the ion cannon to shoot at people. Look at how the pilot turns on the physics breaker and makes the tank experience self destructive acceleration. Look how these pilots force the opposing team into submission resulting in boring, lackluster gameplay. Do they have honor?? EXACTLY! Those punks don't, so take their "honor" and destroy it in a glorious act of liberation.
They call it a Jihad Jeep... But you know what I call it? I call it the Freedom Missile.
Don't you want to punish that pilot and give your team their indefinite freedom to potentially get stomped by foot soldiers? I know I do

You don't even need a proto suit. I use a sever logistics with advanced remotes; as long as you catch the tanker when they are not running their hardeners they pop like candy.... only costs me 15k.

All you gotta do is move the opposite direction to the "Jiihaaaaaad" and it doesn't blow... Unless you're in the redzone, in which case you got 20(ish) seconds to get out and run.
One of the most fun matches I've played involved 3 of my team in tanks, while the other team had a few tanks and a constant stream of jihaads... Everyone constantly on edge, dodging and pew pewing the little jeeps, covering each others arses...
Honestly, it's easier to down a jeep with a tank, than to down a pogo scout with protato av nades. |

I think the Jihaad jeeps / manual missiles / freedom fries... Whatever you wanna call them add a very nice strategic layer to the game.
On a number of occasions I've found myself in range of a tank with my expensive LAV, I've then taken to driving straight at the tank to make them think it's a freebie designed to explode their hull, which in turn has put them off shooting me and allowed me to heal up my shields and escape.
If you're a tank and you see an LAV, you almost certainly have to suspect it's going to go for you, however you can take chances if you take note of the amount of people in the LAV, very rarely will a Jihaad bring two people along, or have a non-militia LAV.
Far more interesting than just simple pew pew-ing at each other from rooftops and redzones.
Also, the LAV takes way more skill than any other role in the game, you're literally 1 shot from death, by any weapon... Not to mention the dodgy terrain and the screwy physics, which occasionally just blow you up on a straight piece of road.
The only 0 skill is a tanker that doesn't want to watch their flanks. |

You are the equivalent of a jumpy mass driver. Hmm... Guess lightning doesn't like fun advertising... Oh well :) (for the sake of this thread) I will be skill-less, to dodge your shots. I will be aimless, to strike the rear of your tank square and true. I will be cheap, when one missile can cost 80k + I will not dedicate, I'll come for you relentlessly with peerless strength. I will guarantee the freedom of your tank. Releasing it from your oppressive rule.
LOL
Skill-less? to drive around in a lav then ram a tank. fyi dodge what shots from the tank? that is only if the tankers sees it coming which most don't.
Aimless? well kinda since you only aim for tanks.
Cheap? yes it is cheap to FREE if you have a free LAV bpo & apex logi. it is FREE isk cost vs a tank that can range up to 1,350,000 isk. yea real fair isk wise.
I have a lot of respect for players who pull out real AV gear like plc, swarms, forge gun, or even a scout with remotes. it is such a noob/BS way to kill a tank. it is like players who can not take out an ADS with real AV so the use a cheap dropship to ram them. it is such a cowards way.
what to skill into next?

here is a good lav fit I found if you have good driving skills and a gunner.
Saga-ll Reactive deflection field l-free cpu/pg Enhanced heavy shield Enhanced light shield booster
low side is up to you though but since I use the 20gj particle accelerator I use basic-complex rail gun ammo Expansion.

similar to the fit I use... No ammo expansion on mine, I'm more of a one man army though, drive into the main base, pop into the turret and pew pew... Stack that heavy suit with as much shields as I can (nothing but a basic nova knife as weapon.)
I prefer the small blaster, but I do bring out the rail turret when there's a few vehicles shooting back at me... Nothing more entertaining that annoying a tank by driving around it, until they get bored and assume you can't do anything to them... Then you park up behind and lay into the weak spot.

Skill-less? You're not only avoiding the tanks shots, but I've also shot at jeeps with my tac-AR and watched them just explode... + everyone should be aware of their surroundings.
Aimless? An LAV doesn't fly through the air, you have to avoid rough terrain and hit at specific angles, as opposed to straight line forge or lock on swarms.
Cheap? If you use free gear, it is free... But then I haven't bought a forge gun in a long while (remember those events giving out free protato forge guns? Not to mention salvage)
It's also harder to hit an ads with a gorgon, than to use swarms (which lock and have more range than the pilots screen will render infantry from)... Those things fly like crap and most of the people trying it can't fly for **** anyway, lol.
Though in the end... Tactics are tactics, you can use any method you like as long as you achieve the desired result. |

well when they had lock on range of 175 & 200 meters yes but now at 150 & 175 an ADS can see you and stay at 185 meters with a missile turret then fire away at you with no return fire. it is easy to ram an ads if you can fly ok at best.

I, who am an avid ADS pilot, enjoy these airborne Liberation Rockets... The corporate goddess Wiyrkomi rains +75 on my screen several times over it is also far more exciting than fleeing Her condemning "swarms" or her almighty breach hand. Don't you agree? The rush of your draconian rule approaching its end... the desperate act of defense... It is far more exhilarating.
Anyway... Why shall I avoid giving you freedom of Boundless potential. It's so explosive that a stray bullet, a slight error in my navigation system, or these potential Jove AI tech turrets will cause instant explosive decomposition.
Respect us Missile Pilots, we take huge risks to give your tank the freedom it rightfully deserves. Especially if it's a tank who is trapped behind the magical redline on ones radar..

Happened to me once with a redline tank. I gave our team the freedom to hack A in that small Caldari map... He returned, and as soon as you can say "redberry tank", i was on my way... for a rude surprise. Flew around the corner into a mine field... I flew sky high.

One thing I love doing is detonating minefields in FW and watching redberries end up team-killing because of it. Same with REs on objectives.
