What are tungsten balls going to do?

They turn the missile into a giant supersonic shotgun

Tungsten is hard. Real hard. Like right through an engine block hard.

It will punch through and render useless any vehicle it hits.

...and any flesh it hits. Put a very large amount of tungsten balls in a missile and explode it over training grounds when the Russian army unit is celebrating something. Has already been done with ATACMS.
