Anti-Armor Weapons

Anti-armor weapons are specialized weapons designed to destroy or incapacitate armored vehicles, such as tanks. They can be handheld, like the rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), or larger systems like guided missiles. These weapons typically use shaped charges or other technologies to penetrate armored surfaces. Their effectiveness lies in targeting the vulnerabilities in armor, allowing infantry or lighter forces to engage heavily fortified enemies. Anti-armor systems play a crucial role in modern warfare, providing ground troops with the ability to counteract traditional advantages held by armored vehicles.
