This guerrilla is evidently a full-time RPG operator as the pack on his back is for spare grenades. He is wearing a Soviet tank crew helmet, which was probably atrophy from one of his kills. The RPG-7 anti-tank grenade launcher, both Soviet- and Chinese-made, along with mines, were the Mujahideen’s main anti-tank weapons. (IAAM)

A resistance anti-tank team conducting an ambush. (AIO/Julian Gearing)

An Afghan guerrilla with a captured Soviet 80mm RPG-22 disposable anti-tank rocket launcher. Along with the 66mm RPG-18, these were never as popular or as successfull as the older RPG-7. (AIO/Julian Gearing)
