SPG-9 Recoilless Rifle vs Syrian Arab Army BMP

Rebel Fighters with the Free Syrian Army lay in an ambush behind an SPG-9 recoilless rifle, waiting for targets of opportunity to present themselves. A BMP arrives just in time to get hammered.


The SPG-9 Kopye, or Spear, was developed by the Soviet Union in the early 1960s. It is a 73mm recoilless rifle designed with the intent of destroying the tanks and armor of that era. Man-portable, the SPG-9 has seen widespread use in places like the Horn of Africa, Syria, Iraq, Libya, and most recently in Ukraine. Due to how lightweight and easy the weapon is to use, it's perfect for insurgent groups around the world who need something with a little bit more kick than the RPG-7. Also, since it's an old Soviet Era weapon, supplies on the black markets that thrive in these fringe wars are very high.


In this video, which was filmed in an unknown location at an unknown date in the Syrian Civil War, you're the SPG-9 deployed by a group of barely trained Syrian Rebels with the Free Syrian Army. The fighters, most likely a crew of 3 to 4 people, are hiding in an ambush location waiting for targets of opportunity to appear. Their patience pays off in the long-run, as an old Soviet era BMP makes it's presence known. They easily put rounds on target and remove the BMP from the battlefield.
