Seahawk like 10t helicopters can carry missiles up to 250kg - 300kg. So even the SOM-J (500kg) would come too heavy to deploy on a helicopter.
I'm not too sure about that. The S-70B-6 Aegean Hawk that we use fires the AGM-119 Mk2 Penguin missile. It weighs close to 400kg.
UMTAS is an anti-tank missile, with range characteristics close to the American Hellfire. Marte-ER has a turbojet instead of a solid fuel rocket sustainer (which is why it can get that big of a range upgrade over the basic Marte/Sea Killer missile).
