That's not a very good representation of STRIX, I'm afraid. (Can't
vouch for the Copperheads - we don't build those :-/ ) Standard MAK, in
spit of using simpler mechanics, comes much closer to describing
STRIX's behaviour against today's AFV defences (ie, no ECM or PDS in
DSII terms). When/if the Russians get Drozd-3 into service, they'll
have PDS able to stop incoming STRIXs or Copperheads.
One more thing about PGDHs - those in service today don't hit friendly
vehicles, unless said friendly vehicles look identical to the enemy
ones :-/
