Soviet recoilless gun
The SPG-9 "Kop'yo" (Russian: СПГ-9 «Копьё», станковый противотанковый гранатомет, romanized: stankovyi protivotankovyi granatomet, lit. 'Easel Anti-tank Grenade Launcher "Spear"') is a tripod-mounted man-portable, 73mm caliber recoilless gun developed by the Soviet Union. It fires fin-stabilized, rocket-assisted high explosive (HE) and high-explosive anti-tank (HEAT) shaped charge projectiles similar to those fired by the 73mm 2A28 Grom low pressure gun of the BMP-1 armored vehicle. It was accepted into service in 1962, replacing the B-10 recoilless rifle.
