While I'm sure this will send the anti-BFR crowd into another foaming-at-the-mouth rage (as something that isn't Reavers or Mosquitos piloted by HA-toting clowns circle-jerking), why not take an idea from Battletech? In particular, a weapon called the NARC that was basically a missile that instead of damaging it's target attached a homing beacon that would guide missiles equipped to receive it's signals to itself (and thus the battlemech or vehicle it was attached too). Instead of being vehicle-mounted, the launcher could be made into it's own weapon, as a type of ammo available for AV or grenade/ rocket launchers, or as hand-thrown "sticky grenade" or hand-placed device (for the sneaky cloaker).
