And yes, medics still carry a primary weapon. In the Canadian Armed Forces, it's the C8 (Canadian version of the M4).

Wasn't the SAM sequence in Behind Enemy Air Lines incredibly unrealistic? The SAM that was launched (I think it was an SA-13, it's been a while) had like a ten-minute burn time on its rotor, and was able to perform LOAL-esque manuevers to re-engage the Super Hornet whenever it missed.

It acted more like a torpedo than a missile, IMO, which are capable of re-engaging targets after a miss IIRC.

Declassified information shows that both Javelin and TOW are top-attack anti-armor weapons (no need to attack from sides/behind) with tandem warheads (to defeat ERA). Both will likely produce great effects on target, so long as it hits.
