A strange way...

I suspect it to be something like an explosively formed penetrator facing downward or in a slight forward angle. possibly with a side ring of smaller ones like the BLU 108 skeet. Simply because you can easier kill a target from appr 100 meters high by overflying it, instead of flying into it. EFP's can be aimed very presicely.
But this all is only a wild gues.
no idea if I am right or wrong.

That could be possibly true DJH.
 
These are meant to attack the target with the complete vehicle. To what I been told from the Textron people on their variant of this system (last year) there is no stand-off function.
