The GPM-T is an anti-tank missile (ATGM) produced in Inyursta and in service with the armed forces of several nations. Designed in 1984, the GPM-T was Inyursta's first truly indigenous ATGM, the preceding GPM-18V2 having been an RPG-7 clone and the GPM-15 having been a clone of the SS.10. it is primarily designed and intended for use as a man-portable anti-tank system (MANPATS); however, it has seen widespread vehicle integration on platforms such as the IAV-72, IAV-78 and Iguana-M2, and helicopter integration on a number of aircraft of SACTO origin.

A simplistic design, the GPM-T uses SACLOS wire-guidance requiring the user to keep the target vehicle in their sites. However, its 6.9kg tandem-HEAT warhead boasts capable penetration against even modern MBTs.
