[FASTBOAT TOUGH]

Don and others,
It is to replace the AT-4/M136 currently used by SOCOM (Except SEALS.) and regular USA units. However the Carl-Gustaf M3 RANGER has already been in use exclusively with some US Special Operations (SEALS) and Ranger units only to date. Used most notably in Afghanistan with the use of the HEDP round. USA regular units might also use the ADM flechette round as well. The 3rd ref. gives 1990 as the date of fielding with the Rangers which seems early by a year as I believe the M3 did not become available until 1991 and is supported by ref. 4 last month from army.mil as to when it fielded as well.
