As the AT role you are carrying out a support role specific to air or ground vehicles. Next to the normal rifleman loadout, you have the unique ability to carry different types of launchers. The most frequently used launchers that have a heatseeking lock mechanism are the 'PCML' and 'Titan'. Those are the easiest to use and require almost no skillset to hit their targets.  
As the Anti Air role you are carrying out a support role specific to ground to air squad protection. The most called upon time for the AA soldier is the start or defence of an AO. The advised launcher is the Titan launcher. The TITAN MPRL is the AA variant, the COMPACT is the AT variant.

Extended profile

As the Anti Air role you are carrying out a support role specific to ground to air squad protection. The most called upon time for the AA soldier is the start or defence of an AO. The advised launcher is the Titan launcher. The TITAN MPRL is the AA variant, the COMPACT is the AT variant.

You are only to engage air targets when you have been given the permission by your squad leader, this is to ensure that the whole of your squad has been positioned behind hard cover. From the air, infantry units are difficult to spot on the ground, engaging the air assets might give away the position of your unit and in the crosshairs of the CSAT forces.

The 'Titan' launcher has both an Anti-Air (AA) and Anti-Tank (AT) version. Picking the right launcher and accordingly the right rockets at base is essential. You do not want to find yourself out in the field only to realise the shells are not compatible with the launcher you have chosen.

Once you have your target in sight you can lock on to it by pressing 'T' by default. This will engage the heat seeking technology and ensure the missile finds his way to the locked target. Air assets are defended by flares making a hit more difficult. The TITAN MPRL is a fire and forget weapon but the angle and direction off the target makes if the target is able to flare off your attack
