- Description
- The LOSAT M8 is an Anti Tank Missile Carrier mounting the LOSAT/MGM-166 kinetic-energy missile system on an M8 AGS-derived chassis. LOSAT (Line-of-Sight Anti-Tank) was a US program that used hypervelocity missiles to defeat armour without a warhead; the M8 provided a compact tracked platform. In-game it weighs 19.5 tonnes with a crew of three and is tracked. The Detroit 6V92TA diesel produces 580 hp for 29.7 hp/t and 72 km/h.
The LOSAT/MGM-166 launcher carries 12 rounds with a 6 s reload; the gunner has Gen 2 white thermals at 4.46x–13.38x but no laser rangefinder. The commander has a 12.7mm M2 and a stabilised 1x sight. The vehicle has a laser warning system.
