mewmewwm Those are not AA weapons, they're anti-armor weapons. You shouldn't have to be "creative", the tools designed to do a single job should simply be sufficient at that single job. A TOW missile is an AA weapon in the same way a tank is a sniper. Sure, technically it can be used for that. I've landed tank shots on snipers at 700 meters before. That shouldn't be the expectation. Would it not be a problem if that was the only realistic way to combat snipers? That is the situation AA is facing now. AA is worse at its job than literally anything else. The .50cal tank turret is just as good an AA turret as the AA vehicle's main gun. That's not someone being "creative", that's the builder's hammer not being able to drive in the proverbial nail and forcing them to turn to a rock they found outside.
