KBGreat Moments in Rocket Launcher History Anonymous 04/07/10(Wed)01:02 No.763061  
    Rocket launchers have been around since the late 1800's. Both the Confederacy and the Union experimented with different types of rocket powered artillery. The picture is of a Confederate type. Bulky, heavy, and requiring great skill to use, these saw only limited use throughout the late 1800's and early 1900's.

    Little progress was made in the field until WWII when both the axis and the allies made the first efforts at man portable rocket launchers. In this picture a French girl poses with a captured German Panzerfaust. It was likely manufactured by Leica Arms and Armament or Zeiss Small Arms and Explosives.

    After WWII, the Soviets copied many German technologies of the time. Rocket launchers were no different. And thus the RPG was born. Simple, cheap, and effective, it became the workhorse rocket launcher of the Soviets. Here a Soviet soldier poses against an Afghan sunset during the Soviet Afghan war.

    Sometimes things like this end up as a surreal by-story, maybe even going on to become a meme.

    This is not the matter with this forced sarcastic story (concerning the deaths of two photographers who had cameras that made them look like insurgents to american forces, and thus got them killed).

    This story has been pushed to its limit, only a small percentage of people who are reading it now actually understand what you mean.

    The ones that do know, dont care anymore because you have become a nuisance.

    Please end this tirade, and find a new story to blow out of proportion. It was an incident of war, mistake or not.

    sage. sage. sage.

    After the collapse of the Soviet Union however, the huge surplus of Soviet weaponry found it's way to the black market. RPG's soon became a staple of any terrorist's arsenal. Here in the famous attack that occurred during the Chargers/Cowboy's game in 1984. Korean native Sui Hung Dong, mentally unstable, fired an RPG in the stands, killing 11 and injuring many more. This was snapped seconds before he fired.
