German Dynamit Nobel Defense (DND), a subsidiary of Israeli defense giant Rafael, presented the final design of the RGW110 HH-T (HEAT/HESH tandem) shoulder-launched weapon, at the Eurosatory 2022 exhibition in Paris. The German website esut.de notes that the system has a new design of the grip and a spike protruding from the barrel
According to DND, the RGW110 HH-T is about to complete the company qualification, and it should be ready for series production in just over a year. The basic version intends to take over the strengths of the Panzerfaust 3-IT warhead and combine them with the ergonomics and operating concept of the RGW series.
DND sees the RGW110 HH-T as a direct successor to the Panzerfaust 3, which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in the German Army this year - but according to DND, it is currently demonstrating its "combat power and destructive performance" in the Ukraine war despite the advanced product life cycle.
The RGW110 HH-T is said to be around three kilograms lighter than the Panzerfaust 3 and, with a combat distance of up to 800 m - with and without a fire control sight - have around twice the range of the classic Panzerfaust 3. The accuracy should also be increased compared to the Panzerfaust.
