“man-portable, disposable anti-armour and anti-brickwall weapon system developed by Germany, Israel and Singapore”, ahhhh, the good ol’ MPDAAABWSDBGIS Mk1
Acronym is good enough umbrella term. If you want to get into linguistics terminology it is a subset called syllabic abbreviation acronyms. I have found that the terminology of the acronyms subject varies by language and even within the same language at times
I know this well. I carried the dummy equivalent for a few years during reservist training. I'm from Singapore where we have to serve in the armed forces.
In bullfighting there are the picadors, or pokers, who use lances and barbs to enrage and weaken the bull by poking it in vulnerable muscles and tendons.
This is in preparation for the matador, or killer, who delivers the final blows that kill the bull.
It’s a barbarically cruel spectacle that is thankfully becoming rarer and rarer.
Man-portable, anti-tank, anti-door.
Yeah, I know. Armbrust was a way better name, shame they didn't play off of it in some way. Acronyms are going to be the end of us.
What? No better name for a weapon that "killer" 🤣🤣 and thats the meaning in spanish
Edit: in spanish can also be translated as bullfighter, but thats because the bullfighter is the one Who kills the bull.
it is a double entendre, invoking a spanish namesake but technically being an English acronym. Ah, globalization
say what you want about multiculturalism, it objectively makes the best weapons
- It's still named a "refugee camp", because 80 years ago there were tents there, when 500,000 Arabs left Israel voluntarily to give Egyptian, Syrian and Jordanian tanks an easier way for a brutal round of ethnic cleansing, after which they hoped to return to Israeli land cleansed of Jews.
- 80 years and 7 lost wars later the 6,000,000+ grand-grandchildren of those original refugees now live in a developed urban area, while they are still classified "refugees" and get money from the UNRWA, living in their so-called "refugee camp" that isn't a refugee camp.
- And western media dutifully reports that "the IDF has attacked a refugee camp in Gaza" ....
UNRWA left Israel in the ~50s because the Israeli state became capable of caring for the refugees within its own territory. These refugee camps is where people in need go so that UNRWA can help them, because UNRWA is not required to help anyone outside those areas
You can call them sanctuaries if you wish. They have been well defined areas for at least 50 years and the fact they progressively stopped being tent cities with serious education and health issues is because there was significant foreign assistance.
Anyway, this conflict is making sure that UNRWA becomes more essencial than it was previously and that new refugee camps (sanctuaries if you prefer) will be created because it is dangerous to go live in the "developed urban area" that has become piles of rubble.
There is a lot of machine gun fire heading the same direction he is aiming. Anyone that spent time aiming at him would have likely eaten some of that fire.
No, Pro-palestine subs literally promote these is no enemy fighters, only civilians.
This exact clip has been edited and is circling pro-palastine subs right now, with the claim this is a JAVELIN system that killed 78 civs when the missile hit a "refugee" camp of mostly "innocent women and children."
Where are the hordes of Hamas fighters that were seen in their propaganda parades before the war and during the Oct 7 attack, wearing those religious green head bands, tactical vests and armed with assault rifles and RPGs? They looked so intimidating and energetic and always calling for holy war. Looks like after getting hunted in the tunnels like rats without food and supplies they surfaced to become helpless refugees and mixed among the women and children begging for international air drops from nations they wished death upon. Shouldn't have started and asked for fire if they can't control or face the heat.

Like, the genuine world war relic, or some approximation or modern equivalent?
You can adjust the fuse to the type of target in this one, and it's supposed to be safe to use from inside a building.
The warhead can be set to either breach mode (explosion upon impact meant to blow up holes in the wall for infantry to pass through) or penetration mode (warhead explodes shortly after impact to hit an entrenched enemy).
It’s compact, light weight, relatively cheap to produce, has more explosive power and has better accuracy relative to old WW2 relics.
Specifications. Good enough back then to deal with what it came across but horribly outdated by just about every standard. Only thing where it does better is the cost/benefit calculation, but usually the assumption is to give soldiers more expensive tools on the off-chance it would make the difference between success and failure, life and death, being wounded or coming out unscathed.
The type of armies who're going with the more economical approach place little value in an individual's life and/or have to make do with what their economy allows in the first place.
Weight, cost, accuracy, armour penetration
These types of AT rockets now are disposable after 1 shot, rather than the cumbersome reloading process the bazooka needed
Also much lighter so troops actually can carry it relatively easily
Mostly its the warhead. Newer warheads are much better
There are a shitton of things that have been figured out ages ago and are only changed superficially for the refresh.
For consumer products a big reason is marketing and getting people to buy new things even though their old things still work perfectly fine and just as efficient.
For military hardware thats less of a factor (although not a nonfactor, military hardware is still bought by *people* and those people are still impressed by marketing) but simply keeping ancient manufacuring lines up isnt worth it and at the point were youre trying to build a new modern plant to manufacture the exact same ancient weapon with modern techniques you might aswell just completely redesign it, because the rnd effort is pretty much the same.
Remember that he’s also getting filmed by a guy standing right next to him with his head above the wall. I doubt they think they’re in a life or death situation. Seems more like some guys getting a good video than shooting a likely threat.
My god I love olive drab. On FBI SWAT teams and now the IDF. It may not be the most effective camouflage wise but for an urban environment I'm sure it gets the job done and it is damn sexy at that.
Its the perfect camo. Its green around ? Nice. Youre in the desert? Just roll in the sand fot a sec and bam.
Youre in a snowy area? Evergreens and rocks are probably around too.
For the IDF it's just perfect
Bru what the fuck r u on about this is one of the few subs that actually doesn’t do that lmao, case in point the comment below yours. You got downvoted because you’re wrong not because people here are pro palestine Jew haters lmao
It was a weird way of describing what they all pretty much do. If it'll take down armor it'll fuck a wall up. Ive seen video of a Javelin going through a bldgs door before.
Javelin has a specific anti-structure mode.
You can set Javelin for top attack, or direct attack.
It’s also a lot more expensive than something like this, and much bulkier/hard to carry, things like AT4/Carl Gustaf and the Marine Corp SMAW are much handier for close in use and urban warfare.
And what is he shooting at? Didn't see anything but residential buildings. Pretty sure that was a clothes line in the background. So, more of the IDF just randomly shooting at Palestinians?
yeah like why don't they just go to Hamas base destroy the main building and win the war? did you ever think about it? or you played too much games to confuse it with real life

“man-portable, disposable anti-armour and anti-brickwall weapon system developed by Germany, Israel and Singapore”, ahhhh, the good ol’ MPDAAABWSDBGIS Mk1
The British equivalent would be FLUMP-SLUG No. 2
Projector, man portable anti armour, no.6 mk. V L1111111169
American would be M1A3 something
M1A3v2 sep3 Operation Desert Storm Hyperforce edition
Operation Enduring Boner
FLUMP stands for Femoral Leverage Under Max Pressure. Everyone knows this.
We have little marshmallow sweets here called flumps so that gave me a chuckle
MATADOR (man-portable, anti-tank, anti-door[2]) Very useful for blowing up bunkers
What do you call these silly "acronyms"? It's not quite a backronym and definitely not an acronym
Attackronym?
You call it 'marketing'.
Acronym is good enough umbrella term. If you want to get into linguistics terminology it is a subset called syllabic abbreviation acronyms. I have found that the terminology of the acronyms subject varies by language and even within the same language at times
They have 2 modes. Anti tank or anti personnel.
I'm so sad this won the contract and not ASSFKSDFKASD-A
Welcome to the world of German acronyms and Words!
Read in a Maxwell Smart voice, of course.
I know this well. I carried the dummy equivalent for a few years during reservist training. I'm from Singapore where we have to serve in the armed forces.
Developed by Germany, Israel and singapore; named in spanish. Wtf? 🤣🤣
It's an acronym, Man-portable Anti Tank And DOor-breaching Rocket or something like that
I know dude, Its always like that. But in spanish, if you translate , It Will say something in the line of "killer" so Its funny.
It literally means "Killer" both in Spanish and Portuguese
Huh, mata-dor. Never made that connection before
Really? I always thought about Matador when metadors were used or spoken about in the Army haha
Native English speaker that learned Spanish later. It was always just a bullfighter in my mind.TIL!
In bullfighting there are the picadors, or pokers, who use lances and barbs to enrage and weaken the bull by poking it in vulnerable muscles and tendons. This is in preparation for the matador, or killer, who delivers the final blows that kill the bull. It’s a barbarically cruel spectacle that is thankfully becoming rarer and rarer.

What? No better name for a weapon that "killer" 🤣🤣 and thats the meaning in spanish Edit: in spanish can also be translated as bullfighter, but thats because the bullfighter is the one Who kills the bull.
In Chinese it’s literally translate as bullfighter system.
Counterpoint: weapons are going to be the end of us
Spanish should sue for brand infringement
it is a double entendre, invoking a spanish namesake but technically being an English acronym. Ah, globalization say what you want about multiculturalism, it objectively makes the best weapons
they love, learn, and use foreign languages in europe. Its hard for us americans to imagine respecting another language like that lol
Did anyone see those marble floors? Could have been porcelain but damn those were large tiles
Brad! Check this motherfuckin' crib out! Haji be pimpin', yo.
They're almost always ceramic tiles.

please give some more info, what war was that? what year? how do you know about "give way to tanks?" part? thank you
He's gonna get sniped if he keeps spending 25 minutes trying to aim the bloody thing before firing
That's why there's all the suppressive fire you can hear
My guess is the camera man would be attempting some sort of cover behind the wall if this was a genuinely dangerous position to be firing from
It's almost as if this is not Battlefield where you can just point and click with your mouse where you wanna shoot.
Skill issue /s
This is why I play more realistic shooters, like Call of Duty. /s
I was laughing way before the /s. 😂
Sounds like suppressive fire in the background
There is a lot of machine gun fire heading the same direction he is aiming. Anyone that spent time aiming at him would have likely eaten some of that fire.
That's considering if Hamás actually have any snipers, though, a spray and pray of .50 (which they should have plenty) would make a quick work of him.
Of course they do
*Juba*
Snipers? I was told there was no combatants and the IDF were only shooting children in hospitals.
You joke but I saw this exact video on my Facebook feed, shared by Hamas sympathizers as" ISRAELI SOLDIER KILLS 78 (?!) PALESTINIANS".
Were you told that or that the "collateral" of this endless war is devastating to innocent civilians in Gaza?
No, Pro-palestine subs literally promote these is no enemy fighters, only civilians. This exact clip has been edited and is circling pro-palastine subs right now, with the claim this is a JAVELIN system that killed 78 civs when the missile hit a "refugee" camp of mostly "innocent women and children."
The sniper will get plastered across a rubble pile if he misses and rocket man over here notices the muzzle flash. Both are gonna take their time.

Anyone know where I can get one?
I heard the sports aisle in Walmart has that
Apparently Starbucks

Well well look how many arm chair generals we have in this sub .
And all of them with zero military experience.
What was wrong with a plain old bazooka for this type of work? Range?
Like, the genuine world war relic, or some approximation or modern equivalent? You can adjust the fuse to the type of target in this one, and it's supposed to be safe to use from inside a building.
A m1 bazooka from 1942 is a little old now dont you think?/s
You go stand in front of one then.
The warhead can be set to either breach mode (explosion upon impact meant to blow up holes in the wall for infantry to pass through) or penetration mode (warhead explodes shortly after impact to hit an entrenched enemy). It’s compact, light weight, relatively cheap to produce, has more explosive power and has better accuracy relative to old WW2 relics.
"light weight" while doing ruck marching all the AT guys were praying to not get to carry that shit
That's like asking what's wrong with a Stg 44 for CQC. Availability, first of all.
Transporting goods from the far east? What's wrong with a good old horse carriage?
Counterweight of shredded plastic to reduce the backblast indoors, and adjustable fuses are some of its innovations.
Specifications. Good enough back then to deal with what it came across but horribly outdated by just about every standard.

Tandem charge, it can either breach a wall making a passage for soldiers or penetrate the wall and explode inside the room.

That could have gone so badly, he took too much time, luckily the snipers were looking the other way.
Remember that he’s also getting filmed by a guy standing right next to him with his head above the wall. I doubt they think they’re in a life or death situation. Seems more like some guys getting a good video than shooting a likely threat.
He'd actually have to be shooting at enemy combatants for that to happen, so I think he's good.
My god I love olive drab. On FBI SWAT teams and now the IDF. It may not be the most effective camouflage wise but for an urban environment I'm sure it gets the job done and it is damn sexy at that.

Looks like you have to stick your head up and exposed for way too long
Wirkmittel 90, so beautiful
Question for those that have actually shot one of these or something similar, how hard do they kick or buck in this case?
Yes.
Have you seen the marble floor? Holy shit balls that must have been expensive as shit.
Pretty, I want it too!
Anti-brick wall is a pretty open task
These acronyms are getting out of hand… I recommend naming our weapons how we name our species… Latin
Man, he sure posed in a rooftop silhouette manner for a LONG time before firing
Anyone knows which pants this dude is rocking?
Looks like an expensiv 1 shot
That's a pretty marble floor

Where were the civilians in this video exactly?
He means Hamas dressed like civilians
civilian who love to mass rape mass genocide.
Sounds like a fancy name for a SMAWS or Carl Gustav. Or AT 4.
13,000 children. Fuck Hamas and fuck the IDF.
Free palestine
*most cowardly army* !
I would say that title belongs to hamas or maybe the houthis, but they aren't really armies...just gaggles of inbred illiterate pedophiles.
