I have been looking at some resources on the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. A number of references mention an EM69 90mm AT weapon.
For example, from Wikipedia
"The main plan was to cooperate with the Greek Cypriot LOK in deploying a number of machine guns and anti-tank weapons (the Greeks had three 90mm EM69s)."
From what I can gather it was a 90mm unguided rocket launcher, like a Bazooka or a Carl Gustav.
Can anyone provide any further information, such as manufacturer and performance. A picture would be great.
Thanks
Bill
