  • Support Excellent EV in the RPG-7 article and very high quality. However, given how highly staged the photo appears to be I don't think that it should be widely used: it's an excellent illustration of a launch of this weapon, but anyone who tried to fire it like that during an actual battle would be dead before they could pull the trigger.
