==Accuracy== The accuracy achieved by ''MCLOS'' missiles is hard to put a firm figure on, since it is highly dependent on the skill of the operator and any distractions the operator has to contend with (such as being fired upon). Actual figures from combat operations suggest that it is much lower than SACLOS guided missiles. * [[Six-Day War]] 1967 β [[AT-1 Snapper]] β limited use, only one tank kill is attributed with a hit probability of less than 25%. * [[Vietnam War]] 1972 β fired by American troops, the French [[SS.11]] β about 10% compared with over 50% for the SACLOS [[BGM-71 TOW]]. * [[Yom Kippur War]] 1973 β [[AT-3 Sagger]] β between 25% at the start in well trained Egyptian hands and 2% at the end in less well trained Syrian hands once the threat was understood by Israeli tank crews.
