R.P.G./zh-hans Rocket Launcher Rockets travel in an arc +30% damage bonus -25% projectile speed -75% clip size "看到火箭怎么出膛的了吗小子？他渴望自由啊！上帝一定会保佑它得到自由的！"

R.P.G. (火箭式推进榴弹)（rocket-propelled grenade）是一把士兵的武器。Visually, it is a greener version of the Rocket Launcher, with a checkerboard pattern on its side and an oversized rocket sticking out of it.

Compared to the Rocket Launcher, it can only shoot one rocket per reload, traveling 25% slower yet dealing 30% more damage. The rockets are also affected by gravity, and slowly fall to the ground in an arc while emitting a whistling sound. In addition, its rockets increase both explosive push force and self-damage against the user, with both attributes allowing for faster and higher rocket jumps than usual.

Unlike the Rocket Launcher, the R.P.G. does not have any damage falloff, and will deal full damage on a direct hit at any range.

Strategy

The arcing properties of the R.P.G.'s rockets allows the Soldier to bombard enemy positions that are otherwise unreachable, including encampments behind walls and fortifications. This allows for arcing rockets from extremely far away, above and beyond the tall buildings of most maps. In addition, the increased damage and lack of damage falloff makes it viable to safely bombard a single position that enemies are grouped up in, such as Engineer nests, capture points, narrow hallways, and wherever the VIP happens to be.

Trivia

• The appearance of the R.P.G. is based on concept art for Team Fortress 2's Rocket Launcher. The pre-3.0.0 model in Team Fortress 2 Classified is near-identical with a green hue, whilst the current model is bulkier with a hand guard and darker green hue.
• The "chest thump" taunt was taken from live TF2's taunt for the Direct Hit and Beggar's Bazooka.
• Prior to the 3.0.0 update, the description quote was: "It's a wonderful sight to behold when they're all soaring through the skies... and not towards your general direction."
