The LRAC de 73mm Mle 1950 was a French antitank rocket launcher produced and fielded in the 1950s. The LRAC fired a 73 mm (2.9 in) high explosive antitank projectile that was capable of penetrating over 11 inches (280 mm) of rolled homogenous armor when struck at a 90-degree angle of impact. The LRAC 73-50 was replaced in French service by the LRAC F1. Used during the Korean War for the French Battalion of the United Nations Organisation, it pierced the armor of T-34 tanks.
