Hmm...there's actually a very interesting weapon called the CRV7 FAT (Flechette Anti-Tank). Although it's a pod of unguided air-launched missiles carrying five all-tungsten flechettes, what do you think of something similar? Perhaps a pod launching non-explosive, purely armor-piercing, unguided, and ultra-fast missiles in main weapon slot.

A flechette launching pod very similar to that is actually something I've been experimenting with since this post went up. It'll be one of the secondary weapons.

Speaking of kinetic weapons... What about an "air support" option, where an orbiting warship drops a tungsten "arrow" to the requested coordinates? Yes, I know they have relatively little destructive power, but the cool thing is that they're highly accurate and have a relatively small kill radius, yet they quickly destroy large targets like command centers, giving them no time to call for reinforcements.

It's a cool idea, but I think it's too similar to the cruise missile airstrikes you'll have.
