Nope.  One RPG is pretty inaccurate, but at close
range (urban areas) they'll get a hit eventually, even
with really bad technique.  Somalis were getting hits
from blind luck, mostly.  Once you get a hit
straight-on, it _will_ penetrate the armor and
probably either destroy the vehicle outright, or just
kill everyone in the troop compartment.
