RSP for PG-7VLT

Hi all,

Nice cutaway pictures for the PG-7VLT showing fuze position. Currently looking for an RSP using a double DEARMER shot against the VP22 contained within? Any similarity with VP-7. Don't reckon it would be classified.
 
From what I can tell the US RSP is still classified. But from what I remember of the other PG 7s a single dearmer at base element or cut the nose element off. It's been awhile so I don't remember impact angles or points of impact. But after reading a little more on the PG 7VLT am not sure why a double dearmer would be needed.
 
I believe Weberoed is correct. I could see where the 7-VR would need a double RSP as it has 2 fuzes but why would you need it against the VL variant which only has a nose element and a base fuze.
 
I believe the VLT is the tandem warhead variant with the 2 fuzes, so the US tech data shows but no RSP for the fuses. However, it does give a dearmer shot for the VP-7 so I am looking at that for a possible solution. Of course the other option is cut the piezo off but I have been asked for a dearmer solution.
 
The VR is the tandem warhead variant. It's a 66mm precursor warhead followed by a 105mm secondary warhead.

You have a nose element and a base fuze for the first warhead and a base element for the second warhead. If I remember correctly both base fuzes are electrically initiated.

Info for other variants here: http://world.guns.ru/grenade/rus/rpg-7-e.html - Love their site too!

And I managed to find a cut-away that I attached below
