The bazooka is not special in itself, it is that rocket it fires that is special. inside the rocket there is a cone, and inside that cone is some superheated copper, when the rocket hits the vehicle the cone snaps inside-out shooting a spray of superheated copper through the armour of the vehicle, it is generally used to create a hole in the vehicle, not destroy it.

Air is sucked out of the bazooka and there is a seal at the end where the ammunition is fired. Then when you fire the weapon the seal at the end is released and the cone or whatever the ammunition is used flies through the air hitting the target aimed at.

A bakooka resembles a length of pipe with a few attachments. The 2.36 inch bazooka was skinnier and had wooden shoulder rest and handles. The improved 3.5 inch bazooka was fatter and had metal furniture in place of the wood. Several World War 2 movies have used the 3.5 inch bazooka in place of the 2.36 inch bazooka, but in reality the 3.5 inch bazooka was not developed until after the war.

When was bazooka invented?

Weapons engineers working for the U.S. Army, invented the Bazooka anti-tank weapon. The Bazooka is not a gun. It is an antitank rocket launcher. Basically, it is a glorified tube that shoots a grenade. The M1 bazooka was invented in the early 1900s by Dr. Robert H. Goddard. It was demonstrated to the Army in 1918, but the end of the war stopped its development. In 1940, an Army Lieutenant suggested the M10 shaped charge grenade should be added to the M1 bazooka. This was done, and by 1942 the first M1, now called the M1A1, was operational. It was improved until the end of WWII.
