The RPG-7 (Russian: Ручной Противотанковый Гранатомёт, Routchnoy Protivotankovy Granatomiot; English: Hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher) is a Soviet, shoulder-launched, anti-tank, propelled grenade launcher designed in 1961 by Bazalt, and is the successor to the RPG-2. A weapon used for decades by Russia and the Soviet Union, the RPG-7 is manufactured in a number of variants by nine countries, and is now the most widely used anti-tank weapon in the world. It saw service during the Vietnam War, and more recently in engagements in the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa. It is used currently around 40 countries, and it is also popular with paramilitary and guerrilla forces. The RPG-7 and the RPG-2 have shaped charges to increase effectiveness against armor.

Battlefield Vietnam
Edit
NVA and certain Viet Cong Heavy Assaultkits; the Viet Cong are usually issued the RPG-2 on most maps. It is equipped with a scope that adds a slight zoom and helps greatly for accurate aiming. The RPG-7V has very high damage and an effective blast radius, but its long range capacities are difficult to manage as there is a noticeable arc in the rocket's trajectory. It can destroy any light vehicle in 1 rocket, helicopters in 2 rockets, APCs in 3 rockets, and tanks in 4 rockets.

The RPG-7 is issued to Rebel and Insurgent Anti-Tank kits. Compared to its counterparts, the ERYX and the SRAW, the RPG-7 has a much quicker reload speed, but cannot be guided once fired. Therefore, it is best to use the RPG-7 to engage stationary vehicles or turrets, and leading the target for moving targets. The rocket will also drop as it travels, so for distant targets, the player must compensate for this by aiming above the target. Being an unguided weapon, occupants of enemy armour will not be notified of your targeting them, unlike the SRAW and ERYX.

Singleplayer
Edit
In Battlefield: Bad Company 2's singleplayer, the RPG-7 makes a very brief appearance. During the final cutscene of No One Gets Left Behind, when Flynn "Ghost Rider" is attacking members of the Latin American Militia, Kirilenko orders one of the militiamen to shoot an RPG-7 at Flynn, destroying his helicopter. It is never available to the player.
Multiplayer
Edit
In multiplayer, the RPG-7 AT in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the first rocket launcher issued to the Engineer kit, requiring no experience points to unlock. It inflicts more damage against enemy vehicles than the M2 Carl Gustav in multiplayer, but also travels slower and falls more steeply over long distances. When combined with the extra explosives specialization, the user is given eight rockets in reserve and is able to destroy some buildings without the need for ammo resupply packs. Compatible with the tracer dart targeting system, the RPG-7 inflicts limited splash damage against soft targets.

Edit
Also worth noting is that since the Tracer Dart Gun isn't in Battlefield: Bad Company 2: Vietnam, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the launcher on helicopters and other mobile targets, all infantry weapon fire has been enhanced to deal damage to the UH-1 Iroquois.

Singleplayer
Edit
In the game's Singleplayer mode, the RPG-7V2 is the main anti-tank weapon used by the PLR. It is first encountered in Operation Swordbreaker and can be encountered multiple times during the campaign. It is used by VDV troops during Rock and a Hard Place.
Multiplayer
Edit
In Multiplayer mode, the RPG-7V2 is issued to the Russian Engineer kit as their anti-vehicle launcher, and the counterpart is the American SMAW. Both weapons have slightly ballistic trajectories and low splash damage, so the player will require multiple shots to kill uninjured infantry with only splash damage. However, it can kill with one shot if it is direct impact, and disable vehicles in 1-3 direct shots depending on the type of the vehicle and the shot placement. It is most effective when it shot to the back of a tank.

Edit

- In Battlefield: Bad Company 2's multiplayer, Russian Engineers will always have an RPG-7 on their back, regardless of whatever launcher they have equipped.
- The RPG-7 rocket in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will travel 25% faster if it is locked onto a tracer dart.
- If the player fires the RPG-7, doesn't reload and swaps to a another weapon, then back to the RPG-7 the rocket will be still be in the RPG for half a second. It will disappear when the player begins the reload animation.
- This is likely because the default model of the launcher has the RPG inside it.

- Battlefield: Bad Company 2: Vietnam marks the first time the RPG-7's iron sights can be used. Battlefield 3 is the second game to utilize that.
