      @@Sil3nt Not really. The safety cap is just to prevent it from accidental detonation from being dropped on its nose. When it is doing 120 metres a second into your living room wall there is still a decent chance of detonation with the cap on. Not having the trigger housing cocked is safe though.

    Am sure it was just a translation issue, but you undersold the penetration capabilities for either warhead instead stating the warhead's diameters. The PG-7M is rated at 300mm of RHA, the PG-7L is rated at 500mm of RHA. Again another brilliant video - absolutely loving your channel - one of the best ones I've found! Thank you

      The Australian army dispose of all explosives after a set shelf life, I had assumed that TNT became too unstable/unreliable after about 40 years even in ideal storage conditions.

      Russian RPG-7 portable anti-tank missile is obsolete, optical targeting system, with 200 m effective range. The American-made Javelin missile, on the other hand, has an infrared framing system, it is autonomous, that is, with the target once selected it flies to the target even with the target in motion. And it has 4.9 km of effective range. The Russian missile ROG-7 or ROG-8 are obsolete and rudimentary compared to the American Javelin.

      In fact, the difference between price is very large and the result of use is also extremely favorable for those who have the Javelin, as Ukraine showed in the war. The Russians are scared of this Javelin missile. This has to be seen as an investment that can generate victory or defeat as the Russians are experiencing in Ukraine.

    Hilarious weapon really.
    Very effective in the field but with a few "minor" issues.
    If you drop the rockets they might detonate
    If you fall over whilst carrying a loaded RPG-7 it might detonate
    If you clip the edge of a wall when you fire, it might detonate (it has no minimum range mechanism)
    Basically, its lethal to the target, and semi-lethal to the user.

    With regards to the PG-7VL fuze and external/internal circuitry (typically if you crush the external cone into the internal cone with cage armour you short the fuze, is this still the case with a PG-7VL rocket?), Do you have an operating manual you could share for the PG-7VL? What is the designation of the fuze used in a PG-7VL round, is the bulb made out of plastic?

    During iraq-iran war my arabic language teacher who was in this war told a few situations what he saw actually and it was during night attacks when the heavy fires come from Iraqi submachine guns.. the officers shouting RPG lunchers.. in response to his commands around 50 mens together stands up to fire RPG and destroying the machine guns because movie forwards is won’t possible until its destroyed .. he said in this moment only a few persons have enough times to fire his luncher before hits by those machine-guns.. sometimes all 50 try to get only one machine gun..

    I want to know if the RPG trigger can really be substituted with that from the Enfield rifle like in that Tank movie.
