In this video we analyse the appearances I'd Russia's RPG-30 during the conflict in Ukraine. The RPG-30 is an interesting shoulder-fired anti-armour weapon which uses a smaller precursor rocket to, in theory, defeat explosive reactive armour and active protection systems. Updates/Corrections: 24/10/22 - RShG-1 not RPG-30 at 2:14. 25/10/22 - To clarify the precursor decoy rocket is not intended to defeat or detonate the ERA, the main rocket's tandem warhead charge is designed for this task. While the precursor might cause some limited kinetic damage to ERA its main task is to trigger the targets APS.
