Atop the launch tube is a 2.7× 1P38 optical sight. When launched, the missile deploys eight fins as the rocket leaves the launcher, stabilizing the rocket during flight, up to an effective range of
Three warheads are available for the weapon:
The TBG 29V thermobaric anti personnel round. The OG 29 high explosive/fragmentation (HE/FRAG) round for anti personnel purposes. The PG 29V anti tank/bunker round has a tandem charge high explosive anti tank (HEAT) warhead to defeat explosive reactive armor (ERA). This warhead is standardized with that of the PG 7VR round fired by the RPG 7V rocket launcher. With a tandem charge, an initial small charge detonates any reactive armor. If explosive reactive armor (ERA) or cage armor is absent, this charge strikes the main armor. Behind the primary charge, a much larger secondary shaped charge bursts at the rear of the initial warhead and projects a thin, high speed jet of metal into the armour compromised by the first charge. PG 29V can kill hard targets, including tanks with ERA. The RPG 29 is unusual among Russian anti tank rocket launchers in that it lacks an initial propellant charge to place the projectile at a safe distance from the operator before the rocket ignites. Instead, the rocket engine starts as soon as a trigger is pulled, and burns out before the projectile leaves the barrel. On the bottom of the tube is a shoulder brace for proper positioning along with a pistol grip trigger mechanism. A side rail on its left side accepts a 1PN51 2 night sight.

The RPG 29 was developed during the late 1980s, following the development of the RPG 26, and entered service with the Soviet Army in 1989. It has recently seen intermittent use by irregular forces in the Middle East theater, including in combat against Allied forces during the Iraq War, and the 2006 Lebanon War, when it was used against Israeli forces.

The RPG 29 is believed to have been used in skirmishes against American and British forces during the initial 2003 invasion of Iraq. An RPG 29 round was reported in August 2006 to have penetrated the frontal underside hull (equipped with ERA) of a Challenger 2 tank during an engagement in al Amarah, Iraq, maiming one and wounding several other crew members, but only lightly damaging the tank, which drove home under its own power. On August 25, 2007 a PG 29V hit a passing M1 Abrams in the hull rear wounding 3 crew members. On September 5, 2007, a PG 29V hit the side turret of an M1 Abrams in Baghdad, killing 2 of the crew and wounding 1, and the tank was seriously damaged. In May 2008, The New York Times disclosed that another M1 Abrams tank had also been damaged by an RPG 29 in Iraq, while fighting Shia militias at Sadr City.

During the conflict, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz stated that the RPG 29 was a major source of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) casualties in the 2006 Lebanon War. Shortly before the end of the conflict the Russian Kommersant magazine acknowledged through anonymous sources the possibility of a weapons transfer between Syria and Hezbollah during the Syrian withdrawal from Lebanon.

During the Syrian Civil War, Syrian Opposition Forces and Islamic State (ISIL) both used RPG 29s.

The cartels are known to have smuggled RPG 29s with some seized by Mexican forces.

During the 2014 Gaza War, Hamas had used RPG 29s to attack IDF Merkava tanks, however because of the recently developed Trophy countermeasure they had little effect.

During the Iraqi Civil War, ISIL has used RPG 29s in Iraq, probably ones taken in Syria. And anti ISIL Shia militias in Iraq have also used RPG 29s, the Iranian produced "Ghadir", which was supplied by Iran.
