The PF-89 is the new generation standard light anti-tank weapon (LAW) in service with the PLA to replace the obsolete Soviet-style 40 mm LAW. The PF-89 is a recoilless rifle used primarily by infantry squad for engagement and defeat of light armor and bunkers. The recoilless rifle design permits accurate delivery of an 80 mm High Explosive Anti-Armor warhead, with negligible recoil.

PF-89是在PLA服役中的新一代标准轻型反坦克武器（LAW）去代替陈旧的苏联-风格40毫米LAW。PF-89是无后座力发射最初被步兵班使用用于交战和击败轻装甲和碉堡。无后座力发射设计允许精确递送一枚80毫米高爆反装甲弹头，同时可以忽略后座力。

 

The PF-89 is a lightweight, self-contained, antiarmor weapon comparable to the U.S. M136 AT4. The weapon consists of a free-flight, fin-stabilised, rocket-type cartridge packed in an one-piece, one-off, fiberglass-wrapped tube. The PF-89 is man-portable and is fired from the right shoulder only.

 

The launcher is watertight for ease of transportation and storage. The PF-89 only has very primitive optical sight for aimming, with no night combat capability. The firer must be able to see and identify the target and estimate the range to it. The round of ammunition is self-contained in a disposable launch tube. The system weighs only 3.7 kg and can be utilised effectively with minimal training.

发射装置水密为了运输和仓储省力。PF-89只有对准目标的非常原始的光学瞄准器，而且没有夜战能力。发射人员必须能够看到和识别目标而且估计对它的射程。射体被包含在一个单独、一次性发射管内。系统重量大约3.7公斤和能以最短的训练有效地运用。
