Overview[]
AirLand Battle[]
For sheer accuracy and armor piercing capability, few other ATGMs can compare to the RBS 56, with 26 points of AP it is easily capable of one-shotting many lighter skinned vehicles from the front, even the vaunted pride of the Soviet Union the T-80U would not be able to stand for long against the RBS 56.
However, there is a big limitation to the RBS 56 and that is its range, at 2275m it has the same range as many of the Warsaw Pact's higher tier tanks like the T-72 Wilk, all of the T-80 series and higher end T-64s like the BV and BV1. While not as powerful as it is, it is outranged by many other infantry ATGMs like the MILAN used by the United Kingdom, France and West Germany as well as the Konkurs and Fagot used by the Warsaw Pact.
