R. Sukmar <<R2RS@UMI.CC.UAKRON.EDU>>, whther there are any laser guided ATGM in operation.

I beleive the Hellfire(used by the AH-64) would qualify. Another ATGM would be the Coppperhead CLGP(Cannon Launched Laser Guided Projectile). While not technially a missile. It purposes is close enoug that it should be considered as such. However the
Copperhead, was not wideley produced, after a long and expensive R & D program. However I believe it also worked fairly well in the GUlf war. 

Hope this helps
