Recoilless gun or rocket launcher?

[edit]

It's unclear if this is in fact a rocket launcher. I can't really find many references online, but the design and history seem to suggest that this is a recoilless gun, and not a rocket launcher. IOW, the projectile is propelled only by the charge, and does not have a rocket motor in it.
