Description My second try at a multi-purpose shoulder-fired missile launcher

The 'Shinigami' was made with the intent of allowing foot soldiers to be able to engage various targets like IFV's, APC's MBT's, aircraft and helicopters with a relatively low-cost one-shot-one-kill weapon system. However, there is a rather expensive ammo type which is distributed for specific targets which normal missiles wouldn't even be able to scratch, mainly used against high-value bunkers.
The targeting computer on top works together with the highly advanced scope to acquire and track targets up to 10km away.

top: compact mode for transport, ammo is carried separately.
middle: firing an AP missile with depleted uranium core
bottom: ammo types;
grey: AP (shaped charge)
light-brown: Missile with substance on the tip which ignites when within a set distance of the target. As a result the missile's charge literally turns it into a 'pure energy bolt' and is capable of busting nearly anything, mainly designed for use against very tough targets, and isn't used often due to the cost of the missile
white: air-burst (pellet size shown next to the missile)
brown: HE penetration air-burst (can be set to explode after penetrating up to 20cm of walls and such or simply on contact)

"brown: HE penetration air-burst (can be set to explode after penetrating up to 20cm of walls and such or simply on contact)", ok, are you CRAZY!? If one Explosive Missile isn't good, just fire and reload more faster! i am just imagining what will occur if that thing got builded!

no shot is ever as effective as a well-aimed first shot.

so what would you rather have, a missile which can punch some lights out in 1 go, before they even realise what happened, or a multi-rocket launcher barrage system which allows enemies to get into better cover, because of the time it takes to knock down any cover in the way?

Nice design and conception.
Only about depleted uranium core - in missiles and that-size-projectiles this will not work(ok, maybe it will have an effect on the carrying soldier...), good old hollow charge will pirce up to 800cm of hardet steel and make a good job

Jup it does - so the relativ low speed isenΒ΄t a disadvantage anymore in contrast to a subcaliber sabot like a APFSDS or something.
Hay, btw i see i can read half of your writen words with German too
