Current in PTS the health of an ATM is 10, same as a LRM missile. With volleys of fewer missiles, ATM are torn apart by AMS. With a missile size of almost twice that of LRMs, they should also have at least twice the health.

Lets compare launchers:

LRM5 1 slots 1 ton
LRM10 1s 2.5t
LRM15 2s 3.5t
LRM20 4s 5t

ATM3 2 slots 1.5ton
ATM6 3s 3.5t
ATM9 4s 5t
ATM12 5s 7t

This makes the ATM9 equal to the LRM20 is size and tonnage. Taking into effect the greater tube size plus larger reloaded, etc. An ATM missile is definitely larger than an LRM missile. The health of 20 LRM missiles equal 200. Currently health of 9 ATM missiles equals 90. Overall, the health of 9 ATM missiles should equal at least 200 to be on par with LRMs. This would make each ATM missile equal approximately 22.222222.

If we do this math comparing ATM3 with LRM5 we get each ATM missile at 16.6666. Comparing ATM6 and LRM10 equals 16.66666 and so on comparing 9 with 15 and 12 with 20.

So, this means that the health of an ATM missile should be somewhere between 16.6 and 22.2 health and not the 10 as a LRM missile.
