By GlobalDataThe company’s AT4 family of weapon systems comprises multiple man-portable, lightweight and fully disposable weapons, including anti-structure, anti-armour and anti-personnel / high-explosive weapons.
Weighing less than 7kg, the AT4 HEAT system is a shoulder-launched anti-armour weapon that provides defence against infantry-fighting vehicles.
The weapon is easy to operate and fully disposable, allowing soldiers to fire and destroy targets and then discard the empty tube.
The man-portable AT4CS HE enables dismounted soldiers to target enemies from buildings or structures.
Other systems in the family include AT4CS AST, AT4CS HP, AT4CS ER and AT4CS RS.
In July, Saab signed a framework agreement with the US to provide the AT4 system and Carl-Gustaf recoilless rifle ammunition.
The agreement allows the US Army, US Special Forces and US Marines to place orders for a period of five years.
