Interesting Anti-Tank gun?

[PZIV]

I was watching some videos on YouTube to see WWII footage and I found this video.

In the first 13 seconds there is some sort of weapon one person can carry seemingly and still packs a punch to knock out a tank.

Anyone help with what this is and when it was used and how much?

Not bad footage with the sound off.

antitank

it is a 8.8cm Raketenwerfer 43 "pupchen", fired a rocket round like a panzerfaust. sometimes mounted on a small wheeled carriage, or on ski or skid. dml makes a model of it in 1/35 scale. regards, mike

I sort of like the music. It's anti-war.

Man against Tank

If you could find the entire training film, "Man Against Tank", where this was taken from, you will see many different types of weapons that were used against tanks. In the film, the Germans destory many different types of tanks, even firing a sleeved flair gun with a grenade against the turret of a T-34. Great film.

Rob ; The "sturmpistole" may look like a "sleeved" leuchtpistole , but it's not. It's specifically made for grenade "tossing". These are a bit scarce with shoulder stock and all it's tidbits.
