"The Swedish grenade launcher is older, but RPG-7 is lagging behind ": in the Czech Republic intend to replace Soviet weapons

«Swedish grenade launcher ancient, but the RPG-7 is lagging behind»: in the Czech Republic intend to replace Soviet weapons
The Czech Armed Forces intend to replace a number of combat systems, inherited from the Soviet era and equipped with infantry. These include assault and sniper rifles, ATGM and RPG.

RPG-7 is a Soviet-designed weapon, which is still widespread and popular in the world due to its ease of use and effectiveness since its introduction in the 1960s
– writes edition CZDefence, while noting, that these grenade launchers "inevitably lagged behind" the requirements of modern combat.

The local upgraded RPG-75 is considered as a replacement, Swedish AT4, American M72 LAW, German-Israeli-Singaporean RGW-90 MATADOR, Enforcer from European developer MBDA and other products. At the same time, the author prefers the Swedish Grg m / 48 grenade launcher, the basic version of which was adopted in 1948 year:

"Karl Gustav" is much older conceptually. Nevertheless, it has undergone significant development.
As indicated, Hungary has already purchased the indicated grenade launcher in the M4 version and expects the closing of the deal before 2024 year. While neighboring Poland is creating a replacement for the RPG-7 on its own as part of the Grot project.
