I read with interest the various comments about the GR9 being a wonderful attack / CIS asset; so they're going to put a gun on it after all are they ?!
I'm no expert, but can't see a Maverick or Brimstone much use against a gang of baddies with RPG's or even Manpads...
J.F, I had the pleasure of working for you both when as CTP and Manager ( would love to tell of the times after that, suspect might bring a wry smile ! ) , I know you were referring to the JSF, but meanwhile the GR9 has the dreaded nozzle lever too ? Rather better presented, I admit, there might even have been some design involved in the cockpit.
Fortunately for everyone, all I had to do was photograph it !
