Zastava M-57 

     Notes:  The former standard rocket launcher of Yugoslavia, this is merely a light rocket launcher with poor range and penetration. It is based on the Czech P-27, which is itself based upon the RPG-2.  The design, however, has diverged considerably from those weapons, including the use of rocket-boosted projectiles, and a larger, more modern warhead. The sights allow for indirect fire.  Other design changes include the use of a folding bipod, a redesigned firing unit, and a shoulder stop (of rather thin strip metal).  The M-57 may be divided up between 1st Model and 2nd Model; the 2nd model has a better optical sight added, with a magnification of 3.5x.

Zastava M-60A

     Notes:  This Yugoslavian recoilless rifle is very similar to the Czech M-59A, but the ammunition is not interchangeable.  It is usually towed behind light vehicles or animals, and may be dismantled for carrying by pack animals.  It is meant for use against armored vehicles and fortifications, as well as antipersonnel work.

Zastava M-79 90mm RPG 

     Notes:  The Yugoslavian M-79 is patterned after the French LRAC-89.  Price includes a 2.5x scope.  After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the production facilities were in Croatian territory, and the Croats were both the primary manufacturer and user of the M-79.  The Macedonians build it without a license.

Zastava M-79 Recoilless Rifle

     Notes:  This Yugoslav weapon is an improved version of the Russian B-10 recoilless rifle.  The weapon is made of high-strength steel, and comes with an active IR night sight.  The M-79 may be packed on animals, or mounted on light vehicles and armored vehicles.  It may also be manhandled over short distances.  New ammunition was designed for this weapon, but it may also fire B-10 rockets; when it does so, use the B-10 firing tables.

     Notes:  This Yugoslavian LAW is much larger than the M-80, designed to counter modern armor.  It is a disposable rocket launcher in a glass-fiber tube.  There are normal sights, but the M-90 has a bracket for Russian-designed night vision devices.
