    U.S. Marines with 1st Marine Division execute the procedures for loading and firing an M3A1 multi-role anti-armor anti-personnel weapon system prior to a live-fire exercise at Range 408A on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, March 24, 2022. The MAAWS, also known as the Carl Gustaf recoilless rocket system, is intended to supplement existing shoulder-fired rocket systems in infantry squads. This live-fire training ensures the Marines are capable of completing weapons performance evaluations and are able to successfully employ the MAAWS from a variety of shooting positions from a static firing line aimed at targets at various ranges.
