The M136 AT4 is the Army's primary light antitank weapon. It is a recoilless rifle used primarily by infantry forces for engagement and defeat of armor threats. The rifles design permits accurate delivery of a 84mm High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) warhead providing excellent penetration capability and lethal after-armor effects.
The system weighs approximately 15 lbs and is man-portable. The AT4 system consists of a free flight, fin-stabilized, rocket packed in an expendable, one-piece, fiberglass-wrapped tube. The launcher is watertight for ease of transportation and storage. The M136 AT4's warhead uses an extremely destructive, 440-gram shaped-charge explosive that can penetrate more than 14 inches (35.6 cm) of armor.
Based on my research, when this is put into the game in the next patch (v2.1), it will be a single shot, disposable munition which will probably be used to destroy an objective like the stryker. Tests have shown that this will function the same as the RPG, except it will have a larger blast radius and cannot be reloaded. Info subject to change. --Desertfox 59 19:36, 2 May 2004 (UTC)
