Whatever happened to the scoped RPG?

I don't know if you guys remember, but a long time ago there was a RPG with a small scope on it, I believe on Al Basrah. Anyway, it was really nice and I wish it would return, maybe for the Russian HAT kit?

Well they completely remodeled the RPG and I guess they never got around to putting a scope on it again.

They removed it because it is not realistic for a normal insurgent to have access to a scope. Plus they were way to accurate.

I think it would be good for Russians as they are a conventional force

Yeah find it hard to believe they use iron sights on the heavy equipment.

I Agree. ( for the insurgent faction )

But I think we should re-putting the scope for the Russian HAT kit

i agree that the russians should get scoped rpgs7s IF they still even use rpg7s. do they? i thought by now they upgraded to something like rpg18s? i could be wrong. but if they still use 7s then yeah scoped versions would make sense for russians, but not insurgents.

Russia will get the RPG-29(i think that is it or is that the one that is in game?) not some shitty RPG-7 as far as I know Russia stopped using the RPG-7 in the late 80's

well again i could be wrong, but i dont think the rpg29 is going to replace the rpg7 but i think it is used alongside whatever they replaced the 7 with {which i still think is the 18} they are not quite the same, the 29 is huge, the 7 and 18 are much smaller weapons. they fire different rounds too.

the RPG-7 was used like in Vietnam...when the French were they why would they replace any thing with such an old weapon system? but IDK i don't wanna Google atm

the "RPG with a scope" was from BF2 SF, and it was a pretty crappy model, replaced by our RPG :)

It might be an idea at some point to make a scope for it that might pop up now and then but it would be low priority.
