-Several advanced anti-tank weapons have a lock on capability. This is extremely useful for engaging distant targets but it is not suitable for every target or at every range. This guide will show you how to lock on successfully and equally important teach you //when// to use you weapon to be effective.
-====== Lock On Checklist ======
-Ensure you have completed the following tasks to ensure a lock on:
-  - Switch to your weapon's optics
-  - Zoom in all the way
-  - Switch to thermal mode
-  - Centre the target in your view
-  - Press Tab (beeping will indicate success)
-  - Wait for beeping to change tone (indicates lock)
-  - Fire Weapon
-====== Switch "Attack Profile" (Top Down Attack) ======
-**You can switch attack mode with Ctrl+Tab.** This will cycle between the "Top Down" and "Direct Attack" modes.
-Top down attack will make the missile travel upwards for a short time after being fired, allowing it to get over obstacles in the way as well landing a hit on the generally weaker top armour of move armoured vehicles.
-Direct attack may be a better option if the vehicle has a structure that covers it from above but not the sides, like a metal shed or a tree.
-====== Trouble Shooting ======
-If you are having trouble establishing a lock check the following:
-  * Are in optics mode
-  * Are you in thermals mode
-  * Have you zoomed in all the way
