EFPs; the new AK-47?

[Schmedlap]

Some of the EFPs while by no means heavy, are not small, and hiding something with a 10 to 12 inch diameter must be a slight challenge.

Obviously, yes, but smaller than a trunk full of 155's and easier to conceal given that the camouflage is often part of the finishing process before it gets handed off to the cell that employs it.

Could I ask for some anecdotal evidence of cheap Iranian EFPs being given away?

I'm neither an Iranian nor a Shia militiaman, so I cannot give the anecdotal evidence. But if the Iranian pays for the materials and manufacturing process of the EFP, and then hands it off to the Shia militia, then, for the Shia militia, the EFP is cheap, since it is given to them. Kind of like if I were a rich kid and daddy bought me a sports car. For me, it would be cheap, since he incurs the expense.
