RPG 7

Ammunition
The RPG-7 can fire a variety of warheads for anti-armor (HEAT, PG-Protivotankovaya Granata) or anti-personnel (HE, OG-Oskolochnaya Granata) purposes, usually fitting with an impact (PIBD) and a 4.5 second fuze. Armor penetration is warhead dependent and ranges from 30 to 60 centimeters of RHA; one warhead, the PG-7VR, is a 'tandem charge' device, used to defeat reactive armor with a single shot.
Airtronic USA has developed a series of lethal and less lethal ammunition including a long range chemical dispersion round that can dispense 2 liters of OC/CS for civilian crowd control.
Current production ammunition for the RPG-7V2 consists of four types:
PG-7VL standard HEAT warhead for most vehicles and fortified targets (93 mm)
PG-7VR dual HEAT warhead for defeating modern heavily armored vehicles equipped with reactive armor (105mm)
TBG-7V thermobaric warhead for anti-personnel and urban warfare (105 mm)
OG-7V fragmentation warhead for anti-personnel warfare (within caliber due to limitations of international treaties)
