My newspaper has an AP photo of insurgents in Fallujah loading
a rocket-propelled grenade into a launch tube.
This appears to be about a 75mm recoiless rifle 3 meters long
with a .5m breech mounted on a tripod. But the round appears to be at
least 1m long and light weight.
Could someone identify and describe this weapon? Thanks.
