I doubt these will be used in lieu of 556/762. All this does is give end users the ability to engage something discovered during ISR reconnaisance, where as of now a raven UAV just gives situational awareness, i.e. "Hey, a guy with a mortar!"

Being able to smoke mortar guy when discovered, outside of small arms range, behind cover, or screened/concealed is value added.
