Rocket Artillery

A brand new campaign-based 3D tactical engine covering combat in World War II, from the developers at Koios Works. The first operation covered is the famous "Wintergewitter" or Winter Storm, a desperate attempt by Hoth's 57th Panzer Korps to break through to the encircled 6th Armee at Stalingrad and the Soviet counter-attack by 2nd Guards Army that drove them back.

ammunition data. Soviets clearly outproduced the Germans in Rockets and Mortar rounds.

The german 21 cm is actually different than the 15 cm rocket in its warhead design. The 15 cm had a thin walled HE section in the back of the projectile and the rocket motor is up front. The 21 cm has the warhead up front. It also has a thicker walled construction and would be menace. I read an account of a US tank destroyer platoon that came under NW fire and the results were devastating. I could only assume it was not a 15 cm which were reported to be blast weapons of sort.
