Projector Infantry Anti-Tank (PIAT), 1942 (c)

Although the PIAT had its drawbacks, such as the difficulty in cocking the weapon in a confined space and a maximum range of only 100 metres (109 yards), it was capable of penetrating any Axis tank armour used during World War Two (1949-1945). This example is painted in desert camouflage.
