The RPG-7 is a light anti-tank grenade launcher designed in the Soviet Union. In the Desert Punk series, the weapon is more rare and expensive compared to rocket launchers like the M72A2 LAW, which are more common. The only time it is seen in the manga is the one owned by Kaoru Kaizuka, a rich tycoon with great money to spare. In the anime, it is more like a gag weapon used out of nowhere.
