It is very difficult, perhaps impossible, to knock out an M1A2 Abrams tank with an RPG-7 from the front as in the film. The front armor of an Abrams is extremely thick and lined with several materials to prevent such a penetration.Although RPGs have been known to damage Abrams tanks, these are impacts on weak points of the tank, and would not have caused the tank to explode as the film depicts.A more suitable weapon for engaging a tank would have been an FGM-148 Javelin, an anti-tank weapon which the terrorists do possess but instead use to shoot down helicopters.
