04:09 How soldiers use NLAW
NLAW (Next generation Light Anti-tank Weapon) eliminates even the most advanced tanks. It is best-in-class for dismounted light forces that operate in all environments, including built-up areas.
It weighs just 12.5 kilograms and measures a fraction over a metre. But Saab’s NLAW anti-tank weapon also packs a powerful punch.
With a missile capable of penetrating 500 mm armour and a range of 20 to 800 metres, the system has the ability to defeat main battle tanks.
NLAW was developed in a cooperation between Sweden and UK where its designated as Robot 57 respectively MBT LAW.

While I was in the Finnish army, our tank company instructor described the NLAW with a single word:
"Unfair"
Just like how knights complained that the crossbow, then eventually, muskets, was unfair, and made them obsolete.

@@tomperkins5657 The Mother of All NLAWS ?
S'all good man!
people often get distracted talking about NLAW versus Javelin when discussing Ukraine which misses the point. They're not competition they're supplementary. There's a reason The British Military uses both. NLAW is amazing for anyone to eliminate a tank thats is in front of them and an immediate problem. They're cheap (in relation to Javelin) and are highly mobile. Infantrymen can quickly learn how to use the system and can still fulfil a normal rifleman role. The Javelin on the other hand can reach, see much further out and hit harder, ideally designed for a specialist AT team who want to clear a larger area in front of them from armoured threats. These systems work best when overlapped with each other, with Javelins providing anti-armour support over infantry from a dug out position behind them. Targeting the hardest threats while the NLAWs protect the infantry from any vehicles seeking to overwhelm them. They're both great systems although the NLAW really is the biggest force multiplier, specifically for a force like Ukraine, the MoD and Swedish Govt clearly did their homework while SAAB aced the task at hand.
There are a lot of open fields in Ukraine, making Javelins the biggest force multiplier for the majority of situations. NLAWs are far better in an urban environment though.
NLAWS are one-shot disposable weapons that can be carried and used by one soldier.
Javelins are reloadable crew-served weapons, which is the trade-off for double the range and increased performance.
One other thing that doesn't get talked about a lot is the utility of just having the optical targeting system of the Javelin for scouting and observation purposes, it's a very advanced piece of tech.
It's the same with gripen, they did the homework.
Like others imply, the nlaw is really for peasants and those who are for the most part... Incompetent.
Javelins are specialty, purpose built, advanced pieces of hardware that hits HARD. It's a piece of machinery that you want people who know what they're doing touching, and no one else.
Feels like a common trait for Swedish weapons to be effective but easy to use
Well, we do utilize guerilla tactics as main defence of our country. We know we won’t be able to stand against the invading Russians, therefore the weapons need to be easy to use so that civilians can be trained in a short manner r. Eg, volksturm (lol)
@@RedwihteGame Sweden can stand against the Russians because they’re weak, disorganised, their funding corrupted and stolen. Just look at Ukraine!
@sheldon fords How much does an MBT cost?
@sheldon fords Javelin missile costs 200-250 000$ a Russian tank costs 3 million+ i would say they are rather cheap
Not all of them though. Ikea overran the world with little resistance true, but to this day very few understand the intricacies of that weapon system. 😉
Could have a team of engineers fighting that manual: There's still always 1-2 screws left at the end.
I went to an anti-tank training course organized by MPK, a Finnish voluntary defence training organization. We had the chance to learn the NLAW system, and it really is an amazing weapon,;very easy to use, and effective against pretty much any modern vehicle from lightly armored cars to heavy main battle tanks.
Did you guys get to fire real rockets or do they use dummies?
@@JustinRM20 unfortunately we only had the chance to use the training module, which has no ability to fire anything. The "proper" anti tank specialists (such as those in frontline jaeger battalions) train much more with the weapon, and I've heard that some lucky people even get to fire the real thing during combat training.
NLAWs big advantage is weight. If you're an infantryman on patrol every pound counts and a Javelin is nearly twice the weight of an NLAW. That said, if your are motorized infantry the Javelin's 2.5 mile range (5x that of NLAW) and much bigger warhead (nearly 10x the yield) is the way to go.
In rural fighting having NLAW for patrols and Javelin for motorized assault teams is extremely effective. When it comes to urban warfare NLAW is the king of course.
Wait you mean to tell me there are free defense course training for civilians in Finland? Just tell me how do i sign up?
@@KingdomRepublic umm... no, not free, paid, and it's compulsory conscript trainig for at least 7 months for every able bodied Finnish male citizen of 18-45yo that the defence budget allows them to afford.
In Sweden, it used to be the same, then a conservative government put the conscript system on ice indefinitely in 2006 and turned the armed forces into an expeditionary force. In 2014, a social democrat govt reintroduced a reformed conscript system where every citizen is pre-evaluated at 17 for compulsory conscript training of those found able and suitable to start the year they turn 18 unless granted reprive due to studies or inescapable personal obligations.
(Total numbers in each year batch is also limited by defense budget)
What he refers to as volountary courses is probably part of volounteer national defence militia training, comparable to the US national guard, it's not open for the civilian general public at will.

I remember being taught about Soviet/Warsaw Pact tanks in the 1980s, the reactive armour, the speed and aggression of Russian tank regiments. Scary stuff in BAOR. We had a system called LAW80 which we thought was the dogs bo**ocks! NLAW totally blows that system out of the water! I only wish I was still serving to have a go at firing one!

You often see the javelin referred to as a saint, but NLAW is God on the battlefield
Biiiiig difference.
Javelin for open field battle Nlaw for urban combat both are extremely effective
The javelin is amazing but with one big hurdle, it's price.
@@felldin also bigger..... the CLU is huge, the tube itself is huge on the javelin
.
NLAW just looks much more compact and light
sorta like a HMG vs a LMG
@@kainhall Good analogy. Javelin is best within 2.5km, maximum of 4km shoulder fired or 4.75km from a vehicle, up to 5.5km against air targets. NLAW is best within 600m, maximum of 1km and has a direct attack mode which may be used against helicopters. The NLAW is completely disposable where only the tube on the Javelin is disposed and the launch unit is reused. NLAW weighs 12.5kg, Javelin weighs 22.3kg. The NLAW has 600mm of armor penetration, the Javelin has 800mm of armor penetration, both have top-attack modes. The Javelin utilizes a dual charge system to defeat explosive-reactive armor (ERA), contributing to the increased weight. Javelin has the ability to correct its flight path to an extreme degree. Russian tanks aren't equipping the tops of their tanks to defend against Javelin, they are doing it because of NLAW. NLAWs are responsible for up to 40% of Russian tank losses in Ukraine so far. If a tank has full ERA and some luck, it can survive an NLAW.
@@philonetic321 Even a 'light rpg' can be effective against tanks. Target the tracks and if the tracks get loose then that tank is out of commission. I highly doubt any crew want to play pretend they're now a stationary turret. It's not the quality of the weapons it's how they are used.
@@whitegoose2017 To a degree, perhaps. Though the NLAW is far more advanced than an RPG. I'll take quality any day. Javelin and NLAW are so far ahead of the RPG that it's not even a question. Guided vs unguided. Firing an anti tank weapon gives away your position so it had better be doing its job on the first try.
I can’t believe that I just watched a commercial for the N LAW, and really enjoyed it
The NLAW in Squad is a joy to use, really easy and accurate, 10/10 would be a heavy anti-tank unit again.
They have an nlaw in squad?

This brings back memories hauling around Bill 56, AT4 and Carl-Gustaf in the early 90s.
Swedish infantry weapons have a long history of being really good.
Well the trend Expands to submarines, figter jets, ifv's, navy/coastal patrol, artillery and more. It's actually easier to say what Sweden doesn't manufacture, like helicopters and aircraft carriers.
Great weapons for killing more people. Yeah great stuff, woohoooo.
Maybe there should be more wars in Europe, so that more and more people realise again from their own experience that it's no fun.
True But the Downside is that the price tag for the Weapons is a bit higher then the Rest due to that we go whit Quality over quantity
@@thogusdonatus4607 I agree with you, but i but I fear that if we didn't have manufacture them someone other cuntry would have made them instead. But it's very similar to what Alfred Nobel thought about dynamite and smokeless gunpowder, 130 years ago . And the world didn't get any better for it.
It was a British and Swedish weapon it's not owned by one single country as it was a joint effort
NLAW - making Russian tank turrets fly higher and higher!
Thank you for your work
Thank you Saab
"cooks and Logistics Officers" really are low down the technical chain🤣
Having the tandem power of a short to medium range using the NLAW and the medium to extremely long range of the Javelin ensures that a soldier can have kilometers of anti tank power.
A CLASSIC QUALITY WEAPON FROM SAAB IN SWEDEN 💥💥💥
Great video . Thank you.
Its been interesting to finally see all of these various anti tank systems deathmatch against each-other. Many a military program was advanced or abandoned in the wake of this thing...
My 9-3 had pretty much the same effect on a unlucky lorry I hit some years ago 😂
It was the swedish bill 1 RBS 56 manportal SACLOS that was the first top attack system. Then came javelin and tow with a missile that could do top attack

Tack Saab!
1 week of instruction in the swiss army to use this beast!!! Very fun to learn using the "game/Sim" that you provide. Saddly haven't the opportunity to fire a real one, due to safety distances
Yeah we had a competition in my platoon who could get the highest score on the more difficult levels.
NLAW may be not the ultimate system as every design is a game of compromises, but together with Javelin and Stuhna/TOW2 they leave almost no area uncovered. Hopefully US will purchase some NLAWs in the future and will supply Javelins back to Sweden and UK to dissuade tanks ever coming close to infantry, no matter the range.
Since the US bought so many AT4's I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same with NLAW.
But worryingly the US military industrial complex is getting stronger and stronger, and thus we see less and less foreign systems in the US military.
It seems every competition they hold now is just industrial espionage. I mean bringing in all the worlds artillery systems, including the Nora, for a competition for the US contract, then deciding to design their own domestic solution is quite laughably transparent.
The domestic contender didn't exist, but won anyway. It's like a comedy on corruption.
@@benghazi4216 sadly that's often the case when countries with strong military industry do contract competitions.
However I'd say that nowadays I see more of the opposite, US opening more to designs from its allies, even if mostly for licensing only. Though I may be looking more at small arms.
Even in case of competitions, there is a possibility of buying or at least licensing components of the system.
P.S.: what SPG competition do you mean? I haven't heard about US replacing Paladin with equivalents of Pzb2000, Archer or Caesar yet.
@@TheXmabax US doesn't have a plane that competes with Gripen. F-16 is too old, they don't want to sell F-18 on terms people want and F-35 has different(even if similar at first glance) niche. Main competitors of Gripen are Rafale and Typhoon. And it seems like a lot of people choose Rafale.
To be more precise, approach of many NATO members is to buy F-35 for its unique capability, but continue to use(or buy new ones) Rafale, Typhoon, Gripen or even F-16 as lower end multirole fighter with lower maintenance requirements(not even cost, just the time it takes to send components to US) and more familiarity. So majority of flight ours, routine patrols and training would be done NOT by F-35, those would be mostly intended for potential engagements or real escalation.
I think we manufacture our own javelins in the UK these days
This being the official channel of Saab, it'd be cool to see you guys look back at all the great cars you used to make. My family has owned 9-3 convertibles for many years, and we were so sad to hear that you had decided to stop making automobiles. Someday I'd like to own a 900 Turbo. That'd be fun.
While I totally agree with you re SAAB making cars again, the 9-3 was already a GM product, build on the Opel/Vauxhall Vectra platform. The last true SAAB was the 900 until spring 1993, the convertible a little longer (also produced by GM, but still the original SAAB design). - And, yeah, a 900 turbo would be a dream to drive! 👍😎 (edited to correct my all-too sloppy statement of the 9-3 being a rebadged Vectra, it did have SAAB elements until the end)
@@hj45lp Mhm. We had an early 9-3 which still had the Saab design and then the subsequent GM models. They never felt as smooth or well-built as the early versions.
@@randomexcessmemories4452 You are right, apologies for my earlier comment: of course GM first continued the originals, then made a new 900 on the Vectra platform, which became the 9-3, but retained SAAB-DNA until the end.
Not the same SAAB company
@@hj45lpThe Saab that made this video split the car company off in 1989. Each Saab developed after that was by Saab Automobile which rapidly became influenced by GM, who owned 50% of it immediately. The reason Saab AB split the car company off was to “sell” it to GM, so unless you had a classic 900 or older, these guys had little to do with it.
Bring back Saab Cars, we all miss them.
Kudos to our innovative Swedish friends....E...

Modern warfare is being reduced to infantry warfare once more because of antitank/aircraft capabilities of ground troops.
Britain gave Ukraine 5000 BEFORE Russia invaded. It stopped the Russian tanks dead and showed Ukrainians it could fight back. It was a game changer, ready right when it was needed.

I ordered six of these for christmas. I wish you all tank free holidays!
There’s always been an anti tank capability, the Carl Gustav was a beast, but it was heavy and the back blast was lethal. The most important thing about NLAW is its ability to use inside rooms
Good thing they upgraded it so it is much lighter now, and pretty soon a 2km range ATGM will be part of the vast array of ammo for it.
@@Merecir yes, it weighed 35 lbs when I had to hump it, I think the next generation is about 15 lbs, then again they’ll make you carry another 20 lbs of ammunition 🤣
The unit cost of a Javelin is almost a quarter million dollars.
The unit cost of an NLAW is roughly thirty to forty thousand dollars.
Sure, there are some things that the NLAW just can't deal with. But which would you rather the company have? Two more Javelins? Or a dozen extra NLAWs?
For two million bucks, you can have eight dead tanks, or you can blow up the entire mechanized compliment of an enemy battalion.
Javelin firing range is 2500 m to 4750 m.
NLAW firing range is 20 m to 800 m.
Always nice to see the fruit of successful collaboration by likeminded nations. Let’s keep utilising each other’s strengths to all of ours advantage, instead of biggering about whoever contributed more.
Great weapons for killing more people. Yeah great stuff, woohoooo.

VERY well done, Saab. That's a lean, mean, and effective weapon system. $40k vs $250k for the Javelin, it's extremely cost effective as well.
Slightly inaccurate. The Javelin System is about $ 216,000 with one missile included. Replacement missiles are around $ 80,000 each.
Гарна річ! Підсмажила вже багато русьнявих танків.
The NLAW answers a question airborne forces have had since their inception: "how do we keep AT weapons light but useful?"
While previously weapons such as the M72 or RPG-18 were the only real practical LAT Weapons for airborne or paratroopers to carry, but had the shortcomings of short range and low armour penetration. Perfect for things such as APCs or Trucks, but if a tank engages then there's little much to do. The NLAW now gives effective guided AT at a low weight and cost, perfect for combat behind enemy lines.
Truly the best AT system of our time.
A weapon that speaks for itself.
Okay, great video, looks like a great product. So where can I buy one?
Sir, you are a heck of a salesman. I’ll take 10! Gonna hand them out at the office Christmas party…
NLAW is the game changer ATsystem.
Any chance of an NLAW-ER? A longer range version would be awesome!
Javelin.
At longer ranges you need a guidance system. ATGMs are not exactly lightweight.
Ideal for a mobile defense in-depth.
Did not know it was a SAAB was involved in this system. Mad props
