SAAB Carl Gustaf M4 multi-role weapon system at DSEI 2017

[@walterkiel552]

The Military Industrial Complex won't like these... too simple... too practical... too inexpensive... (about $20,000) Compare this cost with Raytheon's FGM-148 Javelin... (about $126,000 in 2003) *You Want Profit... ? Explore Space !!*

[@schmetterling4477]

Totally different technology. This is a launcher for unguided ammunitions. Whether you hit the target or not depends on the skill of the gunner. With a Javelin it's basically fire and forget, one shot, one kill. If I were trying to attack a tank with one of these, I would insist to have at least two, if not three available, just in case the first gunner misses... the last thing you want is an angry tank.

[@MrKlacken]

We never missed with one round without all this extra electronic bullshit. The weapon had the double weight. Even that wasn’t a problem. But with all that extra shit I’m quite sure you’ll have a problem. If you can’t hit the target without all these opportunities of adjustments. Maybe you shouldn’t be shooting it. All you need is a good scope.

[@Veldtian1]

Just outstanding, man portable mayhem indeed but the shit thing is the warhead diameter is limited by the tube, but it's got that velocity of the recoiless round.

How to make art: "aim this recoilless rifle at the company logo" *pans camera through the empty bore* (0:18) edit: 1:44 is it really doctrine to walk around with the M3 on 'safe' and unloaded, why? and adding a 'second' additional safety will remove that 'need', why?

[@eagleeye6691]

the targeting device is obsolete but this M4 recoilless rifle original designation M48 is much flexible than its counterparts the miserable bolsheviks recoilless rifle SPG 9 which already died in the Miserable Bolshevik armed forces maybe replaced by wire guided anti tank missiles upto 2500 m along with the hand-held shoulder fired unguided anti-armor launchers such is RPG 29 ., but alongside the targeting scope issue there is the guiding of the rounds or projectiles which can be wire guided or laser riding to some rounds not all munitions so you have the capabilities of firing guided / unguided munitions .

[@orangedac]

its fancy looking... but is it any better than the good old Russian RPG-7

[@sakils2]

CG is way more accurate.

[@user-py9cy1sy9u]

CG has way more round options. For example air burst round for enemies behind cover

[@alex0236]

yes the CG is a better Platform ... but not as a AntiTank weapon when it comes down to this part bouth the CG and the RPG-7 are weak i would recomend a PZF-3 it outperforms bouth kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZq5g4Jnl82XoJI

[@alex0236]

CG 84mm < RPG-7 85mm < RPG-29 Wampir 105mm < PZF-3 110mm

Nice ! He say the tube have one type of counter to make the account about how many shots are already made it , isn't , ? It's mean then , wich this device have some limited gauge of useful life isn't? Before to be discharged, about the ammo compatible just with " another projectiles" but from the same manufacturer , sound to have a complete dependence in one unique manufacturer instead of tried to make it more compatible with another ammunitions wich already exist on the global arena , in other words : Long time ago on the 80s Egipt began to manufacture by their self technology: clones of RPG 7 , for their armed forces, wich by shadow channels fallen in Afghanistan in muhaedins hands ( perhaps purchased by the cia) and made in the fight to the Russian and with their self(standar) ammunition of the enemy , one god detail in war logistic one your stock is Finnish, steal from them ! Moral: If you want to make god things its not necessary to invent the bicycle!

[@RR-us2kp]

@@XIXjlo or the bazooka

[@rezah336]

too high tech for such a device, it's better to train soldiers than have automatic things

[@patricklundstrom8376]

Actually, no. The old version, you had to pre set the granades for the correct distance, so if a target showed up that was closer or farther away, you had to change quickly but reloading another preset or change the setting. Now, with programmable ammo, you just push enter the raneg milliseconds before firing. De CG is a dangerous weapon for the crew too, so traning is paramount.

[@rezah336]

How often does the situation you described occur? It means that the target you loaded for is changed before you fire. And how much time is gained?

[@Zretgul_timerunner]

reza h try and predict moving targets that are as far as 1000 metres away yeah thats no biggy ...

[@TheJuzy]

Modern problems require modern solutions. A squad armed with the M4 can engage a multitude of different targets in very short time. Swedens army always aims for "shoot and scoot" tactics when it comes to heavy munitions. Saving a few minutes on a fire mission will increase the survivability of the squad and helps them live to fight another day!

[@danni8191]

Make a 120mm heavy gustav and 60mm light. Current caliber is just so bad, too light for anti vehicle/structure work, too heavy for anti personnel.

[@gloriushumbug5832]

*Danni* not necessary the shells can easily pen a mbt or take down any building plus the 120 m would be way to heavy

[@jonny2954]

It can't pen a MBT ffs.

[@jonny2954]

But that's not its purpose. The carl gustaf M4 is no ATGM.

[@jonny2954]

Anti infantry and bunker buster. Sure they advertise it to have anti armor capability (it can for sure crack old IFVs and APCs) however no chance against a MBT (even the Panzerfaust 3 struggles with that). Also it's a RPG, not a ATGM.

[@graemesydney38]

Its a recoilless rifle

[@Puzzoozoo]

The RPG 7 does all the same things with the same range of munitions, and is the same weight the Carl Gustav is now its been on a diet.

[@kerosenevapor1430]

Recoiless rounds are way cheaper than rockets. Also rockets are way more complicated and a lot of can go wrong with them. Also CG supports programmable munition like air-burst fragmentation, which is way better than any RPG munition to deal with bad guys behind solid cover.
