Revision as of 19:34, 25 August 2018
The RPG-7 has been utilized by both Soviet/Russian soldiers and all other Communist bloc countries and client states/groups throughout the world. (The actual Russian abbreviation RPG stands for Ruchnoy Protivotankovyy Granatomyot - handheld anti-tank grenade launcher). Developed from the RPG-2 (also known as the B40 rocket in Vietnam), the RPG-7 is seen all over the world - from the war zones of Africa and the Middle East to Central and South America.
The Chinese made their own version of the rocket - the Type 69 RPG, which differed in that there was only one pistol grip. The second pistol grip of the RPG-7 was replaced by a upper handle. Also the Type 69 has an integral lightweight bipod that folds against the body of the tube. In movies, many times the Type 69 RPG is seen rather than the Russian RPG-7.
Specifications
Type: Anti-tank rocket launcher / recoilless gun (when firing OG-7V anti-personnel round, which has no flight motor)
Caliber: 40mm (tube diameter, original HEAT warheads were 85mm) (varying diameter over-caliber rockets)
Rockets: PG-7VM, PG-7VL, PG-7VR, TBG-7V, OG-7V
Capacity: 1 rocket
Fire Modes: Single-shot muzzle-loading: action is a single-action only revolver-style assembly with the hammer at the back of the front grip striking upwards
Sights: Flip-up iron sights, PGO-7 scope, various other optics mounted via accessory rail
RPG-7
The real Soviet built RPG-7 launcher has never really appeared in many U.S. films (until recently). There were no real de-watted examples in most of the movie prop houses (or armories). In films like Red Dawn and Back to the Future the RPG-7s are fully fabricated fakes, made out of aluminum, plastic fibreglass or wood. The only true RPG-7s that appeared in films for years were foreign ones that used foreign armorers. Currently, the expensive Airsoft RPG-7 replica, resin fakes of varying quality, and the false one used by the U.S. military for training purposes are seen quite a bit in movies and films in which they're not required to fire. When the RPG fires, it is a fabricated fake, designed to fire a pyrotechnic special effects rocket. One of the reasons why these items were hard to obtain was restrictions imposed by the ATF, however recently Soviet manufactured dewatted RPG-7s have been coming into the country for sale.
Specifications
- Weight: 7 kg (15 lb)
- Length: 950 mm (37.4 in)
- Caliber: 40 mm (1.57 in)
- Muzzle velocity: 115 m/s
- Maximum range: ~ 920 m (1000 yd) (4.5 second self-destruct fuze armed on launch)
- Sights: Flip-up iron sights: standard AK-style accessory mount, can mount dedicated PGO-7 2.8x telescopic sight (with optional forehead pad), NSP-2 active infrared scope or PGN-1 starlight scope

Airtronic RPG-7
Since 2009, Airtronic USA have manufactured this improved version of the classic RPG-7 which features an M16-type pistol grip and a MIL-STD-1913 quad rail system which can be used to mount an M4-type collapsible stock, vertical grips and various sighting systems. The tube of the Airtronic RPG-7 is manufactured from 4150 ordnance grade steel, however Airtronic have recently produced a lightweight version known as the MK 777 which uses a carbon composite barrel with steel liner, halving the weight of the launcher. More recently they decided to change the names of the weapons to the PSRL-1 (Precision Shoulder-fired Rocket Launcher) and GS777 respectively.
