FYI I have the guide (I know I'm a geek) and it says that the second bazooka you-get for Engineer is an anti-personnel focused one and not as good on vehicles but better against infantry than the RPG-7. The last one you get like people said above is a guided missile launcher full of awesomeness.

Yes sir it is! It's so damn rewarding, especially when the pilot is halfway decent and making attempts to dodge.

I had no idea it was guided. I will use that one for sure.

i didn't either until the other day but this is my new favorite thing. i was on defense and threw down my mines...if a tank or vehicle comes through and gets wrecked you get a TON of points and bonuses. i forget what exactly but you get the vehicle destruction thing, multiple kills if people are in it, and some sort of weapon bonus i think. all i know is, i was successful 3 times in a game and ended up with like 4k battle points.

How does the squad score work? When I check my stats I have a squad score of 4000 and my overall score is 133,000, I play in a squad 99% of the time. It's not a big deal, just was wondering.

Probably the things you've done for the squad, not what you've done while you're in it. For example, you revive a squad member, you re-supply a squad member, you damage a guy and your squad member finishes him off, you spot a guy and your squad member finishes him off, things like that

You get awarded more points when you do things for the squad. When I heal a squad member I get 20pts/heal as opposed to 10pts/heal for a team member.

Yeah, if you drop an ammo pack you'll notice either refill +20 or squad refill +30, and oher such things.
