PETROPAVLOVSKI

SERIES OF RECOILLESS ROCKET LAUNCHERS



This experimental design of recoiless rifle was shown the very first time in 1931. Photographs were often published in propaganda materials in mid 1930s with the weapon being carried by paratroopers. Some sources said that this weapon was actually designed by L. Grokholsky, author of a few weird military designs i.e. airdropped armed bunkers for paratroopers, who was later executed in the purges. The high explosive round was called the RS-65. The protective shield is made of semitransparent plastic.
