As title says, what's the difference between all 4 different types of rockets, used search but cannot find anything?

RPG-7 Rockets can reach a maximum speed of nearly 300m per second, if your target is 300m away and moving perpendicular to you (moving across the screen, opposite of parallel) account for 1.5-2 seconds of consistent movement by aiming in front of the target, duh.

PG-7V: This one is just your regular every day rocket, it uses a shaped charge which means it is armour piercing. It isn't very good for heavy armour, but great for stuff like a BRDM or LAV-25. Being less powerful means it contains less explosive and therefor less propellant making it lighter and faster, These shouldn't weight you down and they travel a long way, they're also fairly accurate.

PG-7VL: Similar to the PG-7V, but is a bit heavier. It has better armour penetration too. Account for the extra weight in aim and speed.

PG-7VR: this one is the heaviest rocket available, it consists of 2 charges. a small charge on the nose which is used for defeating the reactive armour seen on tanks, it looks like a grid of metal bricks. After the reactive armour has been destroyed the main charge penetrates the main armour on the vehicle. It can produce penetration twice as far as a PG-7V in real life.
Being a heavy round, this one travels a lot slower and not nearly as far as the PG-7V rocket. Best to be used in very close range, more than 100m and targets get difficult to hit. If you're expecting enemy M1A2 TUSK or T90 you should bring a couple of these rockets, they should work best because these tanks have the reactive armour Bricks on the sides.

OG-7V: The OG-7V is an anti-personnel HE-FRAG rocket, in game it seems to have a rather weak range though in real life it weighs less than the PG-7V and should travel just as far and as fast. This rocket is only good for taking out a bunch of infantry and cars like the UAZ. When you load this round into the RPG launcher you probably won't be able to see it because it is a tube shape which fits all the way into the tube unlike the other rockets with the diamond shaped nose.
