Russian troops on the front lines are actively using the RPG-7 with the PG-7VR round to combat heavy enemy equipment. It poses a serious threat to any modern, heavily and lightly armored vehicles, even those equipped with dynamic protection.
The PG-7VR with a tandem shaped-charge warhead features increased armor penetration, and thanks to its tandem design, it overcomes any dynamic protection that modern armored vehicles may be equipped with.
Units with such ammunition in their arsenal successfully carry out tasks to destroy tanks, suppress fortified enemy firing points, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, unarmored and armored targets.
Military expert Evgeny Damantsev added that in one of the battles on the front, a PG-7VR "Resume" shot confidently destroyed a T-72EA main battle tank in a Czech modification. The equivalent resistance of the frontal projection of the turret against kinetic projectiles is no more than 390 mm, and the hull is no more than 500 mm.
Main characteristics of PG-7VR "Resume":
- Warhead type — tandem shaped-charge
- Caliber — 105 mm
- Effective firing range — 200 m
Earlier, www1.ru reported that an improved BTR-82A with enhanced armor protection was developed in Russia. The vehicle is armed with a 2A72 30 mm caliber gun and can withstand hits from B-32 armor-piercing bullets.
