Yes, it has been around a long time, this lighter version is probably much loved by the carrier as it used to be a pain in the arrse to carry over Dartmoor!
Sweden must have made a fortune over the years producing this.
Yes we have, thats why we can aford to be the worlds moral-police nowdays✌😂😜
@@uranusismightybig5111 Just like in WW2 when we sold Bofors 40mm to both sides. 😅
@@erikaskeroth9720 I am not sure Sweden sold Bofors 40 mm to the axis. The one items showing up in Axis arsenal, is said to be captured weapons from, for example Poland.
Indian army using this since it was introduced first. Indian army successfully used it in kargil war were it was used to take out heavily fortified bunkers or posts of pakistan.
since decades its an inventory of IA
Best weapon were tankers cant go.
Poo in loo

The GRG was first introduced in 1948...
I just added this to my wish list.
had not heard of this, though it's been around so long. m4 is very impressive
When I serve the army I was GRG shooter.
(Grenade launcher Carl Gustaf 84mm) then it was 14,3 plus grenade 3,5 = 17,8 kg fully loaded.
Today less than 7 kg plus cartridge weigh 3,1 - 4 kg so around 10 kg fully loaded.
Effective firing range : 150 m to 2100 m using rocket-boosted laser guided ammunition.
Very fun to shoot. I had 95% accuracy of all my shoots if I may bragg.
Also we use 9mm tracer rounds ammo. But at max 100 distant in to paper targets. And also 20 mm trainings rounds in to paper / metal targets, but at max 350 distant.
SWEDISH Carl Gustav 84mm first fielded 1948.
A Carl Gustaf launcher is credited for having disabled a T-90M Proryv-3 around Kharkov
Lol no proof
@@cosmos1246 it's claimed
@@cosmos1246 it's even taken on video by a Ukrainian drone.

Awesome presentation. *I just signed up to the channel as the videos so far seem very well prepared, produced and narrated.* On top of appearing unbiased and not only presenting (and promoting) US weaponry. Kudos!
Now, if it's possible to make suggestions here in the comments I'd request a video about the very interesting *Archer Artillery System!?*
My dad used it in the 60's in the Canadian army and I used it in the 90's in the Canadian Forces.
Carl Gustav m/48 is now 75 years old.
Sweden has had it for ages. Literally.
"New" just just buffed up capability.
Yes, lighter, better sight, and more ammo types💪🏼
I'm kinda digging all this light missile and light guided rocket shit. Small drones etc. A small group of specially trained soldiers can do some damage. "You won't see me. You won't hear me. But you will feel me". Hit 'n Run.
Reliable old school👍🙂
There is illumination and smoke rounds to this rifle as well.
Excellent infantry weapon
No knock warrant substitute?
Hope you end up buying @Everything Military channel! You would be great with that channel.
You left out the use of "Charlie Gutsache" by the Australians in the Vietnam War.....
ooo... there was no battle fought where USA or Nato had not involved.
Carl Gustav was using by Indian Army Since 1976... and it hits the milestone when it was fired against pakistani bunkers at 17000 feet.
Wasn't this developed in late 40's or early 1950's? Great weapon.
First model released in 1948
This is a game changer!
Canada use's these!

In war, no one asks you "How many years of experience do you have?" People are loving military jobs nowadays. Winner takes them all.
"can be used to fire versatile ammo"
*Loads Fulton round*
Sweden is the best wepon producer in the world
Lestened learned plenty from all anti tanks.
What ever there make tanks are proven over to be vulnerable to high or lower end.
Wait! They can penetrate 500mm Armor? That’s 50cm half a meter!!
Hi Xno. That's what I was thinking. Half a metre?
@@roderickcampbell2105 That's rolled steel... real armour is much harder to penetrate than rolled steel. We talk about rolled steel just because it's an easy way to compare the ability to penetrate not because tank armour is actually made of it.
@@blackcatdungeonmastersfami5311 Thanks Black Cat. That does make a lot of sense but I had never seen the rolled steel comparison before. I guess it's like a standardized engineering benchmark test. I learn something new everyday.
Unequalled? Where?
Ah yes, pocket artillery support.
So this can be reused?
Yes.
You dident watch the vids did you, punk. 1000 shoots, after that time for a new one.
i have question why should they use rifled barrel design than smooth bore barrel design that will makes it more reliable and can use APFSDS rounds
Because discarding sabot isn't suitable to use in rifled handheld launcher because of smaller caliber. rifled launcher provides more ammunition variants.
Also, required more energy to go further (due to use of heavy metal such as tungsten to punch through armor). Same concept in shotgun shell
But still, we have HEAT and tandem HEAT to replace that.
@@AnimeIsSatan how about HEATFSDS and HEFSDS ammo they reach longer range than standard HEAT and HE
@@drsm7947 again, they required larger energy, thus, required larger caliber and longer barrel for that to work and effective. Otherwise, the range is way shorter than the intended. There's a reason why it's called "recoilless rifle", not "shoulder cannon".
Also, stabilized fin isn't required for rifled barrel to stable the projectile trajectory, so it's another plus.
Ah stop, it isn't a tank cannon
For the love of god would you pronounce it correctly?
British used them in Falklands war.
It has no guidance. So you cannot shoot very far without missing.
It's not meant to shoot very far. There are other systems like the NLAW (also developed by SAAB Bofors) and Javelin for that but those are much heavier and are single use. A Javelin system weight in at 22.3 kg (49 lb) vs the Carl Gustav M4 which is 6,6kg and reusable so it can be carried anywhere.
The NLAW and Javelin are anti tank only whereas the Carl Gustav is anti tank, anti building, anti bunker and anti personel since it can use different kinds of ammunition. That's why the US and other armies are using both. They're completely different weapons.
Partly true, they (SAAB and Raytheon) are developing guided munition for CG, with a range of more than 2000m and ability to engage moving targets.
It looks cool... should be in call of duty 🙃
I’m pretty sure it’s in modern warfare 2019 under a different name like several of the guns are
@@coolpilot7819 Hmm, thanks alot... I only have completed modern warfare 3 but I'm yet to do mw 2019.👍
Now it will be made in India ❤️
If it's recoiless then why TF does it require someone holding on to it? lmao!
It's a safety, security thing. 2nd guy helps just in case and makes sure the backs clear, assistance in loading and carrying extra ammo. It's like a team thing. Of course you can 1man the thing. But and extra pair of hands never hurts.
Pronounces “Goose-töv” not goo stāv
Made in India..now
Not all of them and not yet. To get around the "Make in india" rules Saab is setting up a factory in India in 2024 for producing the units sold to the Indian Army as well as some other components.
Sorry but it is Gustav not Gostaf! Damn learn proper spelling....
They have a missile for this thing now...
Not exactly the same use cases. Also, the ammo is way cheaper than nlaw US$ 10k or Javelin US$ 200k
(wiki says 500 to 3000 usd depending on ammo type)
@@vfr492 Bit perplexed about your comment in relation to his comment?
@@AlexKall I think he's referring to the Javelin...
@@vfr492 no, he's talking about the development of guided munition for CG, with a range greater than 2000m. It was a project Saab started in 2014, in 2017 Saab and Raytheon joined forces on the project.
@@AlexKall was that a rocket / missil?
