Can somebody tell me what the R suffix for the off-board artillery? What's the difference between 100mm and 100mm R? [&:]

True.
Rockets, one shoot(can simulate "jabos").
Artillery, two shoots.

R – Restricted
Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian
I suppose most of us can use such OBA with no parental supervision [:D]
If I remember correctly, rocket OBA is subject to much greater scatter in ASL, even though this is not true in ToTH.

Your memory is good, UP844. I just looked it up and rockets do not get any correction kinda like FFE on the first round. Also, the damage is not halved like in HE
which lands as area fire. So, less accurate, but more damage. I have no idea if that is modeled in TotH but I'm sure you have good reason to believe TotH is
different. [:)]
