Swiss Rocket Launchers

RL-58/80

Notes: This is a Swiss medium rocket launcher that was still in limited use at the time by 2003. Despite the resemblance to the Belgian RLC-83 and the Bazooka, it is an independent design. First designed in the mid-1950s, the launchers and ammunition were updated and redesigned in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
