instead of those hydras they could put 4 Almas and they would have get something far more useful

They have started issuing the RPO-A and MRO-A to compliment the RPG-18 and RPG-22.I have a question - why don't the Iranian Armed Forces ditch their arsenal of RPG-7s and RPG-29s (too large and bulky, even if an excellent anti-tank weapon) for the more compact but still deadly RPG-32 instead.

It can be built under license at home and Iran's mastered the use of composites to make it even lighter. If the rights to produce domestically are obtained, it can be outfitted with locally made sights and improved with a ballistic computer/controls and perhaps new rounds can be made for it also in the 72mm and 105 mm categories with a wide variety of functions (particularly making the tandem warhead more deadly against armour).

No, sir! The RPG-32 is quite lighter, has improved range and caliber and greater accuracy in addition to being a model which is more compact and capable of being outfitted with a better targeting system.In my opinion they have no reason for doing that.Anti-tank and thermobaric warheads for RPG 7 have the same characteristics,range and effectiveness as the RPG 32.Also allows for anti personnel ammo (OG-7V) to be fired making it a very versatile weapon(aside from being cheap and simple to use).
RPG 7 will stay for a long time all over the world,even US companies started producing it and exporting it (Ukraine).I do however think that we will see new and more effective ammunitions for it.
The problem is that RPG-7 is underpowered and antiquated while the RPG-29 - though a beast - is too large and bulky.They have started issuing the RPO-A and MRO-A to compliment the RPG-18 and RPG-22.
The 18 and 22 have been around for quite a while in iran but now appear to be showing up in larger numbers,so this could indicate local production.
I would imagine that both the RPG 7 and 29 will stay in service for a very long time to come both for their cheap cost and versatility,
A shit ton were supplied to (or bought by) Iranian allies. So yep. They're like the single most prominent thermal sight in the middle eastLikely captured or purchased on the black market. Not surprising since Javelins are turning up all over the dark net and in Syria in the black market.
Iran has a copy it showed off. Idk if they'll procur it though. As the RPG-30 they showed a copy of just next to it seems much more likely because same penetration + ability to bypass APS. Iran has an extremely massive amount of RPG-7 and RPG-29. No need to replace them especially because they're reusable and can fire a massive variety of roundsI have a question - why don't the Iranian Armed Forces ditch their arsenal of RPG-7s and RPG-29s (too large and bulky, even if an excellent anti-tank weapon) for the more compact but still deadly RPG-32 instead.

Have you ever wondered why Russians are using these rockets on their most advanced and expensive Helicopters in Ukraine!?instead of those hydras they could put 4 Almas and they would have get something far more useful
