@UP_HawxxeyeInteresting tactic, but only an idiot ground vehicle driver will sit and wait for someone to chuck mines/C5 on them if they see smoke. And now they have thermal scopes, even harder to approach close enough without being seen.
Also doesn't answer the question of air vehicles. Rockets are really the only answer there and Lis rocket is awful since they slowed it down, very easy to dodge, and everything else is useless/easily countered.

You would be surprised.
Most people are not aware of how aggressively the AT mines are used and unlike C5, they will stay there until destroyed. So even if they kill you ,they might still follow you to the respawn screen shortly after.
A couple of months ago I was dealing with a skilled MAV crew with an insanely accurate 50mm gunner.
After several failed direct attempts to get them, I placed 3 mines around a corner near me and then used myself a bait by firing 2 Lisiles and taking cover to "reload". The driver decides to take the initiative come to line of sight near me around the corner and.... KABOOM. Their Huge killstreak ended.
PS: the player smokes, should be at least concealing from the thermals right now
