Historical Significance:
The RPG-7 (Rocket Propelled Grenade) has earned its place as one of the most widely used and effective anti-tank weapons in military history. Originally developed by the Soviet Union, the RPG-7 became a staple in global armed conflicts due to its affordability, ease of use, and ability to engage armored vehicles, bunkers, and fortifications with lethal precision. Its portability and versatility made it a favored weapon among conventional and guerilla forces alike, with use spanning from the Vietnam War to present-day conflicts in the Middle East and Africa.
The PG-7 rocket, the standard round fired from the RPG-7, was designed for anti-armor operations, featuring a shaped charge warhead capable of penetrating tank armor.
