Historical Background

The M72 LAW (Light Anti-Tank Weapon) was developed in the early 1960s as a lightweight, single-shot, disposable rocket launcher for infantry use. The A1 variant introduced improved safety features and reliability over the original M72.

It became the standard shoulder-fired anti-armor weapon for the U.S. Army and Marine Corps during the Vietnam War, replacing the heavier M20 Super Bazooka. Its portability and ease of use made it a favorite for soldiers needing a quick solution against light armor, bunkers, and fortified positions.

Fun Fact

Despite its name, the M72A1 LAW rocket can also be used effectively against structures and vehicles, not just tanks. During the Vietnam War, troops often used LAW rockets to clear bunkers or breach enemy fortifications.
