A friend of mine was in the Gulf during the warfighting period with the RM and they fired a lot of MIlan out there - he reackons the sucess rate must have been between 70 - 80 %. I recently met the team running hte trails for Milan's replacement and the general feeling was that Javelin was good, Spike from Israel was better, but that the government was going to plump for Javalin for political reasons - special relationship et al.
