Milan

MILAN (French: Missile d´infanterie léger antichar = Anti-Tank Light Infantry Missile) is a second-generation European anti-tank guided missile. Design of the MILAN started in 1962. It was ready for trials in 1971, and was accepted for service in 1972. It is a wire guided SACLOS (Semi-Automatic Command to Line-Of-Sight) missile, which means the sight of the launch unit has to be aimed at the target to guide the missile.
