The Panzerfaust (German: [ˈpantsɐˌfaʊst], lit. 'tank fist' or 'armour[ed] fist', plural: Panzerfäuste) was a development family of single-shot man-portable anti-tank systems developed by Nazi Germany during World War II. The weapons were the first single-use light anti-tank weapons based on a pre-loaded disposable launch tube, a weapon configuration which is still used today (a contemporary example being the 84 mm AT4).
