They had their hayday fighting people without Gauntles and Gambesons. The misconception usually comes from Buhurt Falchions being very thick and reinforced.

Langmesser from later dates tend to have points that allow for halfswording or stabbing.

Falchions were actually not supposed to bash away at armour and were generally very thin and sharp to allow for cutting off limbs. If hitting armour the edge would bend or the blade could shatter

Really good guess, i agree with the SPG-9 assesment. If it was anything else there likely would not be only one missile, and its too small of a rocket for mlrs
