The Helldivers 2 Expendable Anti Tank launcher is a special rocket launcher specifically designed to take out armored enemies - before you throw the Anti-Tank away. Yes, this weapon is a one-and-done, so while calling the Stratagem in does give you two of them and they can be summoned pretty frequently, it certainly makes use of the word "expendable", a disposable weapon created to be fired and used up immediately. Still, it's an incredibly potent summon regardless, and it's fairly common to see Personal Orders in to kill 10 enemies with the Expendable Anti Tank launcher in Helldivers 2 - something I'll explain how to do easily below.
How to kill Enemies with the Expendable Anti Tank in Helldivers 2
The Expendable Anti Tank in Helldivers 2 is a Stratagem Support weapon that can be bought on the Ship at Level 3. When summoned, a pod drops with two different launchers in it, both of which can be picked up and fired once before being thrown away. The Anti Tank is actually pretty damn powerful, viable even in the late game for taking out big enemies like the Helldivers 2 Bile Titans. That's what it's for, by the way - it's not about clearing large areas, but about blowing focused holes in armored enemies like the Titans and Helldivers 2 Annihilator Tanks.
If you have a Personal Order to kill enemies with the Expendable Anti Tank, this isn't something that can be done quickly - the actual radius of the blast on the Expendable is surprisingly small. If you're lucky, you might be able to kill three small enemies with one shot, but frankly you shouldn't expect that to happen, nor should you be trying to take out more agile enemies like the new Helldivers 2 Shriekers.
The short cooldown of the EAT (70 seconds) and the fact that you get two Expendables per drop means that you can keep a reliably steady feed of kills, and have the challenge done within a single, decent length mission. Obviously the easier difficulty you select, the easier it'll be to complete this personal order - but what doesn't that apply for?
