One or two. Maybe none.

Statistically, 0.

The Germans built 290,000 Panzerschrecks, the Allies combined lost about 20-30 thousand tanks after the introduction of the Panzerschreck.

You're not so good at how statistics work, are you?

These things were pretty hard to aim in combat since they were so big, you had to be pretty close to ensure a hit and expose yourself in order to aim it. Early handheld rockets were weapons of pure luck and a last resort.

Going to make an educated guess and say the guy in this picture likely did not have a tank kill, just like 90+% of Panzerschrecks.

Only 1% of the population have expensive sports cars. How many Ferraris does the average person have?

0.

Wait I was under the impression that the panzerfaust was a one use type of rocket. By that video it seems like you would just need another warhead along with the firing element. Can anyone explain it to me?

I never understood how that thing can be rocket-propelled, blast back that big cloud of smoke, and yet it's still somehow okay to launch it from 36 inches away with the butt end pointed right at your damn face.

Think of it as a bazooka but the tube is disposable. They could be reloaded but due to lack of supplies they wouldn't bother.

The propelling charge is burning only in the launcher so projectile got speed only from what burned through the barrel.
Notice how slow it is
