Manufacturer catalog
RPG-7-compatible high-explosive and fragmentation rounds are produced and marketed through several national defense-industrial channels rather than a single company. Public product data for the cataloged examples includes Bulgarian rounds from VMZ Sopot and Arcus, plus Russian OG-7V export data published by Rosoboronexport, Russia's state arms-export intermediary. The shared context is a family of 40 mm launcher-compatible rounds for RPG-7/RPG-7V launchers, with roles ranging from anti-personnel fragmentation effects to heavier high-explosive fragmentation rounds for light vehicles, field shelters, and exposed personnel.
1 weaponsVMZ Sopot, formally Vazovski Mashinostroitelni Zavodi, presents RPG-7V ammunition as part of a broad Bulgarian ammunition portfolio. Its own factory description identifies assembly capacity for explosives and pyrotechnic compounds, an in-house development department, and an open test site used for RPG-7, RPG-22, SPG-9, mortar, artillery, and other ammunition testing. VMZ's official product pages list both OG-7V 40 mm fragmentation and OFG-7V 57 mm high-explosive fragmentation rounds for RPG-7V-family launchers.
Arcus JSC is another Bulgarian defense producer with product lines in grenade-launcher ammunition, medium-caliber ammunition, mortar bombs, fuzes, small arms, grenade launchers, and mortars. Its AR-7V page describes a 40 mm HE-FRAG grenade as an OG-7V analogue for RPG-7 and RPG-7V launchers, while the company background page describes licensed manufacture, trade, and export of defense-related products under Bulgarian and international rules.
Rosoboronexport is not identified here as the plant that manufactures OG-7V rounds. Its relevance is as the Russian state-owned intermediary that publishes export catalog data for the OG-7V fragmentation round, including weight, caliber, direct-fire range, and sighting ranges for RPG-7V/RPG-7V1 launcher configurations.
VMZ lists an OG-7V round with a 40 mm OG-7 fragmentation grenade for RPG-7V launchers, Arcus describes its AR-7V as an OG-7V analogue, and Rosoboronexport publishes export data for the Russian OG-7V fragmentation round.
