The Miniman (Swedish military designation Pansarskott m/68, abbreviated Pskott m/68 ) is a disposable single-shot 74-mm unguided anti-tank smooth bore recoilless weapon, designed in Sweden by Försvarets Fabriksverk (FFV) and became operational in 1968.

Description

The Miniman is delivered with the HEAT projectile pre-loaded launch tube. In appearance, the Miniman is similar to a single section tube US M72 LAW and French Sarpac of the same era. In 1986 the Swedish Army adopted the FFV AT4, designated the Pansarskott m/86, to replace the Miniman. FFV engineers adopted the rugged but simple firing and safety mechanism of the Miniman for the AT4. The Miniman uses a unique version of the high-low chamber launch system that results in no recoil. Moving targets can be attacked at a range of 150 m while stationary targets may be engaged out to 250 m. The Miniman's HEAT projectile has a copper liner and can penetrate 340 mm of rolled homogeneous armour.
