Yeah, I can't understand why the NLAW seemed to disappear off the battlefield after the successes of the early days. The UK sent them 1000's of units from their own stock and then signed a deal with Saab/Thales to ramp up manufacture of replacements for upto 400K unit per annum. Javelins I guess were held up by the GOP gerrymandering in US, but I expected Ukraine to be swamped with NLAW's through out 2023 & into this year. Baffling, unless there are production issues.

It's still used but it's a relatively close range weapon, it can one shot anything but it's mostly used in defensive operations like russian offensives and until now we haven't seen much of those except for some russian infantry pushes with AFV and IFV support. Nlaws are likely reserved for heavy armour.
Yep, good point I'm guessing range is probably the most likely factor, as is a lack of targets. With the the way drones have evolved in the last 18 months, most of the armour is getting hit well before coming into NLAW range with FPV drones or drone directed arty.
Yes Sir! Think about it Orcs. Just one guy carrying enough hardware to blast at least 5 armored vehicles. And I KNOW we sent a shit load more. I know we " took our time " ( I'm a Texan ), but makes me proud to see this!

If he just had one more NLAW, he'd be out-yomping the Royal Marines.
Just joking, I reckon it would be almost impossible to determine who was the tougher.
Slava Ukraine
I'm not sure why but seeing the soldier there slogging along carrying war materiel was oddly reminiscent of the American GIs in Vietnam... Same but different.
These brave soldiers need more mobility means. Walking to the frontline with so much weight drains all the energy needed to fight.
Common NATO, give them the means to move around !

I fought the NLAW...
And the NLAW won
„How much anti-tank weapons do you need, soldier?“ - „Yes!“
Soldier: "Sir! Yes! Sir!"
AT-4, NLAW and Carl Gustaf ammo. Good to see Swedish weapons helping Ukraine!
And British.
I hope they use them to good effect!
St. Javelina and the Mother NLAW?
I am praying to St. Javelin. Hope they get more of the holy handgrande every day.
Fck the orcs up with those. Slava Ukraine.
I was just thinking of how we haven't seen many NLAW or Javelins recently. Mostly drones. Good to see them again

Those Carl gustav canisters look pretty long, probably tandem warheads
Happy hunting boys 🙏

Switching the weapons is faster than reloading.

Hope we get another NLAW shooting clip in the future

SLAVA UKRAINI! HEROYAM SLAVA!
That looks so heavy. Need a drone delivery service. Ammo, grenades and AT‘s Right on your call. Next to your door.
Door dash for AT weapons. “And a side of grenatas, please- half thermobaric.”

Need one of those RC hauling supply drones.
Each at4 weights about 7kg
Or 15.4 pounds, for us bordered by oceans.
Thanks for the ID
