Gazelle and JTAC question

[Lymark]

So, there's a JTAC that would provide laser target in the Gazelle campaign, and as far as i know, the HOT can't be laser guided. Thus, I wonder what the use of JTAC is to the Gazelle?

 

I assume I could only visually look for the laser to know exactly where the target is? Maybe something else too?

The laser is simply to help guide the Gazelle pilot to their target. In the night missions of the campaign, a JTAC operated drone will send down a laser that can only be seen through NVG's.

 

Same idea as this except from the sky:

Yes it's the point of the JTAC in the campaign : give you a visual on the targets or threats.
