Description
This rocket is designed as a heavy offensive weapon for infantry use against lightly reinforced obstacles. Only small fins are provided on the rocket motor, so stabilization in flight has been achieved by incorporating spiral rails in the interior of the launcher body. The rocket is fired from a small portable launcher by means of a light dry cell battery, a US Army 10 cap exploder, or a U.S. Navy “Magnavox” firing key.
The shells are painted buff overall, with a 1/4 inch red band around the nose and a 1 inch light green band around the body. On this latter band are stenciled in black the letters of the explosive filling. Two thin white bands are painted around the body on either side of the light green band.
