AT4CS HP
Light anti-armor weapon
Description
The development of AT4CS HP was dedicated to providing infantry soldiers with the means to use the unique and complex environment of the urban battlefield to their full advantage in defeating a mechanized enemy. The AT4CS HP is an anti-armor weapon that has special internal ballistics, allowing it to be fired from confined spaces; tight jungle, in front of obstacles, or even with its own troops in close vicinity. Both these features make it the only anti-armor weapon in the world that can be used to full urban combat. The AT-4 CS HP rocket launcher is manufactured by a Swedish Company.
AT4CS HP variants:
- AT-4 HEAT: a basic version
- AT-4 CS HP: CS for Confined Space and HP for High Penetration warhead
- AT-4 CS AST: CS for Confined Space and AST for Anti-Structure Tandem

| Operation |
| The AT4CS HP is based on the same manufacture as the basic model AT-4, only the ammunition used changes. AT4CS HP combines the lightweight and firepower characteristics of the AT4 systems with the ability to fire from confined spaces and other narrow firing positions. Where conventional light anti-tank weapons would force the gunner to leave cover for a more open and exposed firing position, the unique internal ballistic design of the AT4CS HP system allows for maximum use of the protection offered by the urban environment. |
| Combat Use |
| AT4CS HP is disposable and preloaded with a specially developed High Penetration (HP) warhead. This provides the soldier with a weapon capable of defeating armor thicknesses exceeding 500 mm, which is more than enough to defeat most types of armored targets on the urban battlefield. |
