4A2 Katushka

The 4A2 Katushka is a Soviet multiple rocket launcher system used during World War II. It features a frame carrying 16 small rocket tubes that can fire simultaneously or sequentially, creating a saturation of explosive power over targets like enemy troops and positions. The system is mobile and relatively quick to set up, making it effective for supporting ground operations, disrupting enemy movements, and providing artillery fire at a longer range than traditional guns. Its design allowed for rapid firing and repositioning, offering tactical flexibility on the battlefield.
