Zastava M-57
Notes:
The former standard rocket launcher of Yugoslavia, this is merely a light
rocket launcher with poor range and penetration. It is based on the Czech P-27,
which is itself based upon the RPG-2.
The design, however, has diverged considerably from those weapons,
including the use of rocket-boosted projectiles, and a larger, more modern
warhead. The sights allow for indirect fire.
Other design changes include the use of a folding bipod, a redesigned
firing unit, and a shoulder stop (of rather thin strip metal).
The M-57 may be divided up between 1st Model and 2nd
Model; the 2nd model has a better optical sight added, with a
magnification of 3.5x.

Zastava M-60A
Notes:
This Yugoslavian recoilless rifle is very similar to the Czech M-59A, but
the ammunition is not interchangeable.
It is usually towed behind light vehicles or animals, and may be
dismantled for carrying by pack animals.
It is meant for use against armored vehicles and fortifications, as well
as antipersonnel work.

Zastava M-79 90mm RPG
Notes:
The Yugoslavian M-79 is patterned after the French LRAC-89.
Price includes a 2.5x scope.
After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the production facilities were in Croatian
territory, and the Croats were both the primary manufacturer and user of the
M-79. The Macedonians build it
without a license.

Zastava M-79 Recoilless Rifle
Notes:
This Yugoslav weapon is an improved version of the Russian B-10
recoilless rifle. The weapon is
made of high-strength steel, and comes with an active IR night sight.
The M-79 may be packed on animals, or mounted on light vehicles and
armored vehicles. It may also be
manhandled over short distances.
New ammunition was designed for this weapon, but it may also fire B-10 rockets;
when it does so, use the B-10 firing tables.
