In Armored Warfare, the M8 MGM-166 is a Tier 10 Tank Destroyer, unlockable from the T249 Vigilante.

In the early 1990s, these missiles received an official military designation: MGM-166. In the early 2000s, they cranked it up a notch with the MGM-166A model that would have the flight velocity of 2200 m/s.

Of course, there were downsides to the whole concept. For one, it was fairly massive and thus unusable on smaller platforms. The missiles would later be made smaller during the CKEM phase, but that happened after the original LOSAT program termination. And, secondly, these missiles had a massive minimum range of 400m. This was not deemed very practical because plenty of engagements statistically happened at fairly close ranges, but that’s how much the missile needed to accelerate to its striking velocity.

As for the MGM-166, it’s unclear what was actually built and when. The missiles were primarily tested either from stationary firing positions or on various cheap test-beds such as the Humvee. Images exist of a demonstrator on the AGS chassis but that seems to be just a model and the actual vehicle was likely not built.


SALUTE & see you on the battlefield!
