Missing PSRAK m/70 (13.5cm) rocket variants

(This is an import from the old forum, original post made by user @blockhaj all credit goes towards them, coming from this post.)

13,5 cm raket m/70

(13,5 cm rak m/70)

Attackraket (ARAK): Attack rocket (HE, HEAT, HEAT-MP)

Engine
The m/70 rocket engine is 13,5 cm and designed by Bofors. It has the fuse cables at the front. It is designed with retractable fins for use in rocket pods (raketkapsel m/70).

Warhead
The m/70 can be fitted with 3 warheads, two HE warheads, shu m/56/70 and shu m/70 and a HEAT warhead pshu m/70. The HEAT warhead can be configured as multiprupose by mounting a proximity fuse. This fuse can be used against both aerial and ground targets (overhead detonation).

Warhead model

13,5 cm shu m/56/70: same warhead as m/56, 3,7 kg TNT.

13,5 cm shu m/70: HE warhead, 3,7 kg TNT.

13,5 cm pshu m/70 ö hk sar: HEAT warhead, 5 kg Composition B.

13,5 cm pshu m/70 zonar: HEAT-MP warhead, 5 kg Composition B. Here fitted with proximity fuse.


Practically speaking, all Arak M/70 launchers should be given the load options, my personal favorite is the m/70 zonar HEAT-MP, as it would be funny to hit low flying aircraft with when they are attempting to evade the RB-71 rapidly closing in.

I will try, I can’t find the Ammunition Register that it would be a part of as “evidence” of its existence.
