Russian armored assault gets stopped in the span of a few seconds as mines and an extremely clearly visible Javelin shot take out the vehicles.

a few hundred meters is enough to make infantry support useless. its not 1944 anymore, when a panzerfaust had to get very close to the targeted tank and thus had to get in range of infrantry support rifle fire.

Warhead size. A Javelin warhead is 19lbs, though that's going to include the copper liners. An M830 HEAT projectile is 25lbs, but a lot of that is made up of the casing, because it has to be sturdy enough to survive being thrown out the barrel. Trying to find a solid stat for the amount of HE is an exercise in madness, but it looks to be somewhere between 0.7 and 2 lbs of explosive. Some of that is just the square-cube law playing with that 7mm caliber difference, but I think most of it is that the Javelin is a tandem warhead, so it has to have a separate set of explosives for each liner.
