The Type 69 85mm rocket propelled grenade (RPG) made by Norinco is a Chinese copy of the RPG-7. First introduced in the early 1970s the Type 69 RPG is a common individual anti-tank weapon in service with the PLA. New types of grenade rounds have been developed in the 1980s/90s to meet the requirements of modern battlefields.
