I’m not sure if this is a shot at me maybe thinking it’s simpler than it is or not. But obviously it’s more complicated than that, especially with what I’m sure are pretty sophisticated targeting systems.
What I think might be getting underestimated is the peoples ability to adapt quickly to the systems. They seemed to figure out the Javelins pretty fast. I think an older guard of military officials and commentators under-appreciate the video-game generation’s adaptability to computer controls and are locked into the regimented idea of how long it takes them to fully accredit someone as a tank operator in the US military vs how long it takes a person to learn how to use this machine.
