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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
