Technical references disagree on the explosive fill, while conflict reporting documents the type in Iraq weapons caches, Boko Haram-captured materiel in northeast Nigeria, and opposition-area Syrian arms-market listings.

Arsenal describes it as an improved, pre-fragmented anti-personnel round with more than 1,250 fragments and AF76 or AF72 point-detonating fuzes, while conflict reporting places it with Boko Haram factions in the Lake Chad basin, Islamic State forces in north-east Syria, and Ukrainian forces around Bakhmut.

Official Serbian export material presents the RBR M80 as a light infantry weapon for close-range engagements against armored vehicles and fortified positions, while conflict reporting documents Zolja-type weapons in the 2001 Insurgency in Macedonia, Boko Haram materiel evidence, and North Macedonian transfers to Ukraine.

The catalog record distinguishes normal French operational use, including Operation Serval in Mali, from Lake Chad basin evidence where sources document VBL M11/Panhard VBL materiel captured by, in service with, or recovered from Boko Haram and ISWAP rather than proving sustained insurgent operation.
