 | | Based on the idea, first brought up by Germans during the WW2, the LAW provided individual infantrymen with lightweight, recoilless, disposable weapon, which was extremely simple to operate, and effective against armored vehicles and many types of field entrenchments and light fortifications. |
 | | Adopted by several other countries, the M72 LAW is now being offered in the `Improved LAW` versions by the Talley Defense Systems Co (USA), which offer longer effective range and better effectiveness against modern treats. |
