Saab is developing significant new capabilities for its AT4 rocket launcher family 2009144

This enables the soldier to defeat enemy targets with much greater flexibility and in many more scenarios. The update further confirms Saab’s leading position as a supplier of modern ground combat weapon systems.
Building on the modularity of the 84-mm calibre system applied to both the AT4 and Carl-Gustaf weapons, the new capabilities allow a soldier to engage and defeat more types of enemy targets, over longer distances and in more complex environments.

The AT4CS ER takes the well-proven anti-armour capability of the AT4CS (Confined Space) and extends its effective range to 600 m. The AT4CS HE will provide the soldier with a direct-fire support capability capable of engaging enemy troops in air-burst or impact mode out to a distance of 1,000 m.

“The new members of our AT4 family further expand the great versatility of the weapon and emphasise its position as the leading disposable shoulder-launched support weapon on the market,” says Andreas Andersson, Product Director, Ground Combat, Dynamics.

Present in more than 15 countries worldwide, the AT4 system is fully combat-proven. It provides the extended range required for mission success, along with night and confined space launch capabilities. Expert gunners are not required to operate the weapon effectively. All AT4s are single-shot and fully disposable. Key charateristics include high target effect and hit propability – resulting in the maximum kill probability for each weapon fired.
