The '''RPG-7''' (Russian РПГ-7) is a handheld anti-tank grenade launcher, developed by the [[Soviet Union]] in 1961. It is the most widely produced grenade launcher in history, with several million in circulation. In this case, '''RPG''' stands for ''Ruchnoy Protivotankoviy Granatomet'', which literally means "a handheld anti-tank grenade launcher".
The RPG-7 has seen action in most major conflicts fought since 1961. It has been used by both terrorist and paramilitary forces, and official military forces.
