Sorry if this is a repost but I couldn't find anything on the weapon in the forum browser. I just wanted to know if anyone is currently working on a RPG-29 for the insurgent faction; here's a couple videos showing its use in Iraq.

Looks like this could be a compromise for the drop with the current in game RPG (hehe)
It does look like a cool weapon that might find its way into project reality. My question would be how many of these are accessible to insurgents. This might be a better weapon for the MEC.

Just like to comment on the Abrams. Didnt look too damaged after the hit haha. Its a hell of a tank, and really difficult to take down. Good videos though

They hit the front. Not very impressive. Might as well throw rocks at it.

I think if there was one as a pickup in main perhaps on 2 spawns? Or even 1.

There's more videos of RPG 29 in Iraq if anyone wants to find them. I think last time I searched for them (a few months ago) I found 5 or 6.

Speculation about HAMAS having them

Unfortunately as this is a suggestion outside of the correct forum and a re-suggestion it will now be closed.
