The 8.8 cm Raketenwerfer 43 Puppchen〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Puppchen" (auch "Püppchen" ? ) = 8,8cm Raketenwerfer 43, in Frankreich )〕 was an 88 mm calibre reusable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by Nazi Germany during World War II. ''Raketenwerfer 43'' was given to infantry to bolster their anti-tank capability. The weapon was fired from a small two-wheeled gun carriage which fired a percussion-primed, rocket-propelled, fin-stabilized grenade RPzB. Gr. 4312 with a shaped charge warhead. The grenade had a shorter tailboom of compared to the tailboom for the electrically-primed grenade RPzB. Gr. 4322 for the ''Panzerschreck''.〔 Both grenades used identical warhead and fuzing.〔 Approximately 3,000 units were completed from 1943 to 1945. It was made in much smaller numbers than either the ''Panzerschreck'', which was based on the American Bazooka, or the ''Panzerfaust'', which was a disposable-launcher explosive charge-propelled grenade, firing a High Explosive Anti-Tank warhead. This is partly because it was realized that a simple hollow tube with an ignition device was all that was needed to launch the 88 mm rocket, rather than an elaborate miniature artillery piece with carriage and breech. Due to the carriage and better sights, the accuracy was better, and the range more than double that of the ''Panzerschreck''. However, ''Raketenwerfer 43'' was more expensive, heavier and had longer production time than ''Panzerschreck or '' Panzerfaust''.〔 ==See also== *Shoulder-launched missile weapon *List of common World War II infantry weapons 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「8.8 cm Raketenwerfer 43」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
