How to Counter Vehicles in Battlefield 6

by

Okay, so I just jumped into Battlefield 6, and it’s a blast! There are a ton of different ways to play multiplayer, and honestly, they’re all pretty fun. If you’re the type who just wants to rack up kills, you’ll love the faster-paced modes like Team Deathmatch and Domination. But, let’s be real, Battlefield is famous for its huge, epic battles on massive maps – stuff like Conquest. That’s where the real action is, with total warfare happening all around you.

Battlefield 6 offers classic modes like Conquest, Breakthrough, and Escalation, all played on large maps with plenty of vehicles. If you’re struggling against those vehicles, this guide will help! We’ll cover the best strategies for taking them down, whether it’s dealing with tanks or shooting helicopters from the sky.

Anti-Vehicle Mines

Players immediately gain access to Anti-Vehicle Mines as a way to stop vehicles, but these are only available to the Engineer class. When it comes to taking out ground vehicles like tanks and armored personnel carriers, the Anti-Vehicle Mine is the most effective gadget available.

Anti-vehicle mines are laid on the ground and explode when a vehicle drives over them, causing significant damage. They’re effective because you can place them and leave them, and strategically positioning them on roads or common approach routes can instantly destroy vehicles that don’t see them.

Rocket Launchers

Engineers have several launchers to choose from, each strong against different vehicles. For taking out ground vehicles like tanks, free-fire launchers are usually the best option, with the RPG-7V2 being a favorite due to its fast rockets. When using these launchers, aim for the top, back, or sides of the vehicle to do the most damage. Lock-on launchers, such as the MAS 148, are also effective against ground targets.

Aircraft are easily targeted by launchers. While unguided rockets are difficult to use effectively against planes, a single, well-aimed RPG-7V2 can destroy a low-flying helicopter. However, it’s much better to use guided missile launchers, such as the SLM-93A or MAS 148, to lock onto and take down aircraft. While all guided launchers can acquire targets, those that are already marked (or ‘painted’) are easier to track and destroy quickly.

Other Vehicles

As a Battlefield fan, I’m really excited to hear that Battlefield 6 is going to emphasize vehicle combat a lot more! It sounds like they’re making it so every vehicle has a weakness, and something that can counter it. Basically, it’s like rock-paper-scissors with tanks, planes, and helicopters! They’ve specifically mentioned the Mobile Anti-Air Vehicle being great at taking down air vehicles, but tanks, jets, and helicopters all have ways to effectively destroy enemy vehicles too. It’s going to make vehicle battles way more strategic, which is awesome!

Below is a breakdown of how to use each vehicle to take down other vehicles with ease:

Vehicle Best Counters To Use Against Other Vehicles
MBT
  • Multi-Purpose Shell / Armor Piercing Shell: Dishes massive damage against ground vehicles.
  • Aim-Guided Shell: Great for locking onto painted vehicles.
IFV
  • Armor Piercing Shell: The best shell to use against armored vehicles.
  • Aim-Guided Missile: Good against vehicles due to its moderate damage and ability to be guided.
  • Lock-Guided Missile: Great for locking onto all vehicles for more precision.
Mobile Anti-Air
  • Multi-Purpose / High Velocity / Anti-Armor Shells: Great for use against aircraft.
  • Anti-Air Missile: Great for locking onto enemy helicopters and jets. Can fire two at a time.
Attack Helicopter
  • Aim Guided / Light Rockets: Good against light vehicles and aircraft.
  • Heavy Rockets: Dishes out the most damage of all rockets against ground and air vehicles.
  • Anti-Air Missile: Capable of locking onto targets in the air.
  • Aim-Guided Missile: Lands good damage against ground vehicles. Can lock onto painted targets.
  • Autocannon (Gunner): Good against light vehicles and aircraft.
  • Lock/Aim Guided Missile (Gunner): Great against Tanks and other vehicles on the ground.
Attack Jet
  • Auto Cannon: Good against jets and helicopters. It can deal moderate damage to ground vehicles.
  • Guided Missile: Great for locking onto and pressuring other aircraft.
Fighter Jet
  • Auto Cannon: Good against other jets and helicopters. Deals moderate damage to ground vehicles.
  • Aim-Guided Bomb: Dishes out high damage when dropped onto ground vehicles.

Honorable Mentions

Although the gadgets and tools mentioned earlier are the best ways to destroy vehicles in Battlefield 6, there are a few other options players can consider. These might not be as simple or powerful, but they can still be helpful when used alongside the top-tier counters. Here are some additional tools that can effectively take out vehicles in Battlefield 6:

  • AV Grenade (Engineer Class): A throwable grenade that deals moderate damage against ground vehicles. It’s most effective when thrown onto the top of a vehicle.
  • C-4 Explosives (Recon Class): A remotely detonated explosive charge that’s best used against ground vehicles. When multiple charges are stacked on the same vehicle, they can cause massive damage.
  • Laser Designator (Recon Class): Although it doesn’t deal direct damage, this tool is used to paint targets, making them easier to track and lock onto with guided launchers.
