Does anyone have any more information on this PG-7VYA?
"The Russians new PG-7VyA is a high velocity multi-role rocket intended for lightly armored ground and air targets. Instead of a shaped-charge warhead, the PG-7VyA employs an explosively formed penetrator (EFP) to achieve terminal ballistics. EFPs, also known as self-forging fragments, use a concave disc of tungsten or other heavy metal backed by an explosive charge. When the explosive detonates, the disc collapses in on itself and forms a long narrow rod that is projected along the original axis at thousands of feet per second, faster than any gun-fired projectile. Even small EFPs are capable of penetrating several inches of steel armor. The PG-7VyA uses an EFP to penetrate the target, forming an opening for the main charge, which passes through and explodes inside the target."
