Well there are many classes of recoilless rifle mind you. From shoulder fired to large enough to necessitate a tripod or a vehicular platform. The weapon has always been held as a multi-task weapon, because of its nature as a catridge weapon, that is not preloaded like many infantry rocket weapons today. It can fire HEAT or APERS rounds.

A lot of major world powers, including the United States, employ recoilless rifles still, in varying capacities. In the US case, the Bofors/Carl Gustav M3 has been adopted for use by the SOF community in the US Army.
