(...) Well, you can't say that is 100% true. How about countermeasures which a tank can employ to block the targeting mechanism of the missile?

(...) Now this is completly subjective and open to debate. I personally build what most people consider "cute" and/or "little" fighters. To me they are able to kill almost any other fighter or mech(a) with one shot. Hey my "Empire" the Galactic (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
