Would it be possible to have multiple shaped charges in a single missile?
Like A single rpg has 3 copper liners going in different direction.

Not if your purpose is armor defeat. You can do it for other stuff though

Only if you want a far less-effective shaped charge (for it's weight) than a singlevone.

>Would it be possible to have multiple shaped charges in a single missile?
that is the point of a tandem charge
a precursor charge to detonate ERA followed by the main charge

>Like A single rpg has 3 copper liners going in different direction.
no real point
if you are hitting the armor in different places, you dont actually increase the odds of defeating the target
and each liner is a fairly large cone-shape, so having multiple of them on a single projectile would make it a cumbersome and large projectile that wouldnt go very far when launched

stacking multiple main chargesd on top of each other wouldnt really have a point either
getting the third charge to perfectly line up with the hole the second one made would require unheard of levels of precision

I saw a video in which a hellfire charge was used against talibans on a toyota.
Those on the back just catched fire.
Was wondering if you could habe three shaped charges for that reason

There are several hellfire variants, many are combined-effects that do blast-frag in addition to the main shape charge. see the latest developments

It's really common for anti-ship missiles.
For anti tank the usual thing are tandem shaped charges and maybe a fragmentation sleeve.

that's officially the coolest bullet I've ever seen
