Well first explain, what ATV stands for.
Well, if not liked on infantry, this kind of tech could be rewritten for fighter protection against plasma beams. On fighters the liquid probably would be stored in tanks and shooted from watercannons as a defencive beam autoaiming against the plasma beam (like antimissle missels), or perhaps been sprayed out permanently through blushing assemblies creating a protective fog around the craft.

I think he means All-terrain vehicles
Hummers and stuff would be cool, but since this isn't a open war, more of a urban one, Ugv's effectively beat them at everything.

Problem is, plasma isn't used for craft weaponry (maybe with the exception of missiles), and such assembly would be far too heavy to carry for fighter craft.

Not even on missiles, they are "kinetic kill" missiles as they are sometimes called, meaning they damage only by their kinetic energy and not with a warhead. The remaining antimatter fuel is pretty volatile though...
