I gotta say, the newer generation missiles are so much more accurate. Old timers like me were in during the days of the LAW. I was not a fan of the LAW and never liked them.

By the time of fall of the Berlin Wall, we were/had swapping/ed to the AT4. When they were fielded I got a 45 min instructional course with it and a few times of walk through the steps on how to fire it. 18 months later I put that ad hoc training to use.

I can personally attest to the accuracy and effectiveness of the AT4 out to about 300 meters. I will say that the time from firing to hit to cook off seems like a lifetime and these films don't show the pucker factor that can go with that. I swear it seemed like 10 sec before cookoff occurred after the hit but once it did, the effect was total destruction.
