Armament specialists conducted an RPG-7 test, which clearly showed how a grenade launcher shot breaks through various obstacles, including a series of glass windows, sandbags and a building wall.

The RPG-7 was designed to fight tanks, but local conflicts have shown that this weapon is effectively used for other purposes. The authors of the video decided to find out in practice what is capable of stopping a grenade launcher shot.

To begin with, a little history: the RPG-7 was created back in 1961, but the design turned out to be so successful that it is still used today. And for him, all new modifications of "shells" are being developed, which are commonly called shots.

Testing the grenade launcher, the authors of the video first tried to break through a series of glass windows installed one after the other and protected by an anti-cumulative grid. The bright explosion of the shot scattered all the installed obstacles. But the most important thing is that the video managed to capture in detail the passage of the cumulative jet when hit. It's very interesting to look at it.

The second obstacle for the RPG-7 was the wall of the building. When they hit it, the destruction turned out to be unexpected for the layman, but fully consistent with the idea of the designers.

The wall with a thickness of four bricks (about 30 centimeters) was sewn like a rag: the hole turned out to be narrow, as if it had been cut out with a scalpel. But behind the broken wall, where the enemy's manpower could be located, the shot mixed, figuratively speaking, the sky with the earth. And hardly anyone could have survived there.

The third obstacle for the RPG-7 was heavy sandbags, which are often used to protect infantry positions, and are also sometimes stacked on poorly armored vehicles. But the video dispels the myth that it can protect against being hit by a grenade launcher. Four bags standing behind each other were stitched and destroyed with the same ease as the wall of the building.
