What is even more amazing is that the TOW flew across two large patches of woods and the small central village!

Most likely the wood were on elevation 0 and shooter, target or bot on elevation 1.

Press F8 for terrain few.

Hit without damage.

That's probably just optimized out. TacOps takes the time of flight into account, that makes things more complicated.
