Thread: Rpg nh-75?

  1. #1
    After hitting a few search engines, e.g. Yahoo, Lycos, Northern Light, and Dog Pile, I'm wondering if someone else was/is able to find a link to some more info on the "Nh-75" variety of RPG as contained in OFP, because I'm at a loss to do so.

    So far all results pull up a description and picture of the variant of which we are all familiar, that of the RPG-7.

    Can anyone else find more info about this seemingly non-existent weapon?

    Most likely, Nh-75 is the Soviet/Russian designation for it. RPG-7 is a NATO-issued designation, like AA-14 or SS-20.

    A search with Google turned up this:

    http://www.army.cz/technika/zbrane/rpg75/rpg75.htm

    Unfortunately it´s in czech, wich I don´t understand a word of.... But there´s a picture at the bottom, and it doesn´t seem to be an OFP-related site like all the other´s that turned up from that search...

    id say yes. I thought BIS had the carl gustav and the AT4 switched around for a while, but they've actually be pretty accurate with these things.
    All my OFP missions can currently be found here. (All of them are the zip files. More to come!)

    The developers are Czech, so it would make sense that the designation or variant of the RPG-7 used by the Czech Army would have made its way into the game.

    Nh-75 is the manufacturer&#39;s code for what&#39;s known as the RPG-18

    They do have them turned around. The LAW is no longer used by U.S. forces. We have a disposable rocket launcher called the AT-4 or "Dragon". I have never seen anything in the U.S. arsenal called a Carl Gustav.

    This was cleared up on another thread way back...if I recall correctly the Carl Gustav is a Swedish/Finnish? (excuse my ignorance) weapon. (Remember, the western forces are supposed to be NATO, not just US), and the fact is, the Russians also have an antitank weapon called AT-4

    The &#39;Carl Gustaf&#39; is made by Bofors of Sweden. It is known in U.S. forces as the &#39;M3 MAAWS&#39; (Multi-role Anti-armour Anti-personel Weapon System) It was first fielded in 1990 with the U.S. Rangers, it is now also used by the Navy SEALS.



    Here is the U.S. &#39;M136 AT4&#39;:



    Here is a more detailed pic of the &#39;M136 AT4&#39;

    And here&#39;s the Russian AT-4, better known (to them) as 9K111 Fagot.

    I think BIS chose to use the NATO name for this, because of the "Fagot" part
