AT-4 is Really Effective Against the Russian Armour

Sweden, which has been a major player in military technology for many decades, continues its achievements with the Saab Gripen JAS 39E and super stealth Gotland-class submarines.
Today we will talk about another Swedish weapon that has earned its time in the spotlight.
AT-4 has proven its worth numerous times during the Ukrainian war, and made its name heard in a category populated by heavy weights such as Javelin and NLAW.
It may not be as well-known as the RPG-7, but it has achieved a notable presence in popular culture.
This weapon has appeared in a number of films, including Terminator Salvation, where John Connor (Christian Bale) used this one to destroy a disabled Hunter-Killer.
And, allow me to remind you that this was Buffy the Vampire Slayer's preferred missile launcher.
The AT4 is an unguided anti-armor weapon produced by Saab Bofors Dynamics based on Carl Gustaf 8.4cm recoilless rifle.
After modifying the weapon's launch tube bumpers, sights, and slings, the US Army adopted AT4 as the lightweight multipurpose weapon M136.

A soldier can carry a couple of AT-4s while you need a couple of soldiers to carry a Javelin missile and launcher. Both have their uses.

Dang that pronounciation of "Förenade Fabriksverken" wasn't half bad

[@gregrobertson5576]

I love Carl Gustaffs ☺

[@jamesnesselrode3155]

It's so cool and so scary how you can kill and Destroy Tanks With Just Using A
little missle that comes out of a javelin tank kill..

[@gilianrampart8514]

Should I assume that anti-tank munitions are affective against tanks?

[@anticom6099]

No, they just don’t believe in tank rights

[@onlypeaceindeath]

It was intended to be used against lighter armored vehicles. Officers of the Swedish Military was apparently slightly shocked at how good it was against heavier armor.

[@snoken1000]

​@@onlypeaceindeath yes we trained to shoot atleast 3 at4 at heavy tanks whith reactive armor like T 90, easy to handle an light so everybody could carry atleast one or more with them on the back.

[@CrowColdblade]

No, the Swedish Army thought it would need 12-15 hits to knock out modern armor. Thats why the NLAW exists. That Russian tanks were so badly protected came as a surprise.

[@niclink1030]

​@@CrowColdblade i dont think the number is right

[@syedafik6487]

Rpg-28 and rpg29 can penetrate 700 to 900 mm armored respectively

[@bradleyanderson4315]

Most armored vehicles aren’t tanks.

[@mooneyes2k478]

But all tanks are armored vehicles.

[@mooneyes2k478]

Buffy? Might be excused for thinking that it's a "missile launcher". A channel with over a million subs is not. There's nothing "rocket type" about it, it has neither an engine nor any form of steering.
There's nothing "missile" about the AT-4, and nothing "rifled" either.

incoherent af lol

[@mooneyes2k478]

@@MarkBerenger That you didn't watch the video doesn't mean it's "incoherent", it means that you didn't watch the video and so didn't understand it.

I am.not Swedish

visual info is totally inaccurate 😂

[@TheShak35]

turns out cheap lancet is also really effective against leopards,challengers and soon abrahams

[@uwekonnigsstaddt524]

Effective against Abrams and Leopards

[@ilovetechnology8436]

All so-called captured javelins and nlaws shown on video were expended empty tubes, their effective load was used to send Russian tank turrets sky high.

[@looseyourzlf]

@@ilovetechnology8436 not true. many videos showing the javelin failure's.

[@ilovetechnology8436]

@@ilovetechnology8436 are you stupid? kid go play video games. better than talking like that

[@nacebedace8243]

​@@looseyourzlf more videos show its success.

[@oldmonk7339]

Don't worry captured javelins and nlaws are waiting for leopard and challengers

[@montanus5661]

Do the Russians have the training needed for the Javelins though?

[@FXGreggan.]

So you're admitting western weapons are superior? Wow

[@niclink1030]

Dont think they have training for them or the ammo

[@JimmyEatDirt]

​@@montanus5661I don't think russians have training for their own weapons

[@carterhaynes8703]

Everything is effective against Russian armor

[@asithalk]

Apparently NATO weapons not good enough to war with Russians..🥴please make better ones.😆

[@javir1669]

Really?

[@asithalk]

@@javir1669 no doubt..those weapons suitable for war with Jihadis only!😂😂

[@jamesscott2894]

Several thousand destroyed and burned Russian tanks and vehicles would disagree with you...

[@alexpark2971]

At 4 is effective Against Western TanKs???

[@Sierrawavemp4]

unlikely

[@MarkBerenger]

yes it is. No tanks are indestructable lol
