RPG - 30 The RPG - 30 " Kryuk " ( " Hook " ; ) is a Russia n hand - held anti - tank grenade launcher . History . The RPG - 30 was unveiled in 2008 by the State Research and Production Enterprise , Bazalt as a modern anti - tank grenade launcher designed to address the threat of reactive armor and active protection system s ( APS ) on tanks . Active protection systems such as ARENA - E , Drozd and Trophy defeat anti - armor munitions by destroying them before they reach their target . The RPG - 30 is an intended response to the introduction of these systems . The RPG - 30 has cleared its testing program and is waiting to be included in the Russian state arms procurement program as of November 2008 . Description . The RPG - 30 shares a close resemblance with the RPG - 27 in that it is a man - portable , disposable anti - tank rocket launcher with a single shot capacity . Unlike the RPG - 27 however , there is a smaller diameter precursor round in a smaller side barrel tube , in addition to the main round in the main tube . This precursor round acts as a false target , tricking the target ' s active protection system ( APS ) into engaging it , allowing the main round a clear path into the target , while the APS is stuck in the 0 . 2 - 0 . 4 second delay it needs to start its next engagement . The PG - 30 is the main round of the RPG - 30 . The round is a 105 - mm tandem shaped charge with a weight of 10 . 3 - kg ( 22 . 7 - lb ) and has a range of 200 meters and a stated penetration capability in excess of 600 - mm ( 24 - in ) rolled homogeneous armor ( RHA ) ( after ERA ) , 1500 - mm reinforced concrete , 2000 - mm brick and 3700 - mm of soil . Reactive armor , including explosive reactive armor ( ERA ) , can be defeated with multiple hits into the same place , such as by tandem - charge weapons , which fire two or more shaped charges in rapid succession . Defenses . In 2012 , Israel Defense reported that the Rafael weapons development authority has developed a defense system , the " Trench Coat " , against the RPG - 30 . The report noted that " Trench Coat " consists of a 360 - degree radar that detects all threats and launches 17 pieces of metal , one of which should strike the incoming missile .

II ' s fuselage was virtually identical to that of the D . I . It was characterised , however , by its short - span cantilever lower wing . Through 1917 , 19 D . IIs were built for front - line evaluation .
