The recoilless gun is designed to defeat tanks, self-propelled artillery systems and other armored targets, as well as to destroy enemy manpower. "Our anti-tank recoilless guns' crews once again worked out the ability to destroy armored vehicles and enemy manpower," the Brigade said.

They can also be used to destroy enemy manpower in shelters and brick fortifications. The manufacturer stated that these projectiles can have an armor-piercing capacity of 300mm and hit targets at a range of 1,300 meters. The ATGL-H recoilless guns are manufactured by the Bulgarian Arsenal enterprise.
In fact, ATGL-H is a version of the Soviet SPG-9 Kopyo recoilless gun.
