You can't go wrong with something shoulder-fired and loud.

So mainly to stealth-based?

The original Ghost Recon has rocket launchers, too.

Just because you're being sneaky doesn't mean you'll never need explosives.

Maybe as a disposable item we can pickup off certain NPC's, perhaps. But as a weapon or a skill unlock similar to the grenade launcher? Please no, no thank you. I personally enjoy not having them in-game, taking on armored vehicles like an APC becomes more challenging and difficult, and actually requires people with half a brain to destroy. Not to mention we already have C4 and Mines, so I don't see what possibility we would need an RPG or Rocket Launcher for.

Because it's a legitimate tool to use and honestly vastly superior to hand-placed explosives. As it stands, the only way to deal with helicopters or tankier ground vehicles is to dump rifle rounds into them like a stooge.

There's miniguns everywhere, on just about everything. If you're only emptying rifle rounds into helicopters or tankier ground vehicles, you're clearly not doing something right. I could easily find a minigun to mow them down every time I was on 4 chevrons with unidad, or being chased by the cartel. Whether it was on the back of a vehicle from the rebels, cartel or unidad, or whether I was near an outpost. They're literally everywhere, so what's the point in adding rocket launchers of sorts. Don't misunderstand I'm not saying it is pointless to add them, and yes I agree that theoretically they do belong in game, however I don't think they should be or needed to be added at all. Also C4 works well on "tankier ground vehicles" or even a mortar strike, hell even miniguns do wonders, then there's the mines and even the under-barrel grenade launcher, which are extremely good if used properly.
But that's all just my own opinion.

I'd much rather have other alternatives available and miniguns be removed.

It's crazy how common they are littered all over the place like that.
