WW2 MLRS: New Artillery

Multiple launch rocket systems, or MLRS, or multiple rocket launchers (MRLs), are a much older weapon than you might think. In China and Korea, they were used as early as the Middle Ages. However, for the rest of the world, this type of weapon remained an exotic curiosity right until WW2.

Pls, we need more MRLS (also more modern ones like the MARS II or LARS II)

Hey speaking of self propelled artillery, fix the Sholef.
Still 15 tons overweight, STILL reloads too slowly (needs to fulfill 9RPM), still has no LRF, still lacks the ability to manually reload the gun when the autoloader is damaged, still has turret traverse rates which are way too slow, and still lacks a stabilizer. And on top of this, it’s over-BR’d in its current state and has no lineup at all.

more useless than that, only the flame-throwing tanks, it’s beautiful to find tanks and planes from different eras with tanks from the second world war or post-war, totally immersive

As they should be.
You cannot entrust such exquisite instruments
of mass destruction to destitute peasants.

How about make a system so these are actually usable like they’re supposed to be? Instead of being out in the open getting killed because you can’t magically know all ranges

Eh, I saw someone desecrate an enemy team with a Type 75 MLRS just a few matches ago.

Jesus that team was bad then XD

I’ve tried using the Bm-31-12 but it’s sooo situational.

I honestly prefer the German or American one

Calliope is just good, but the ammo racking is too easy.

Just good? I like it a lot. And rarely if ever does the rocket system get ammo racked. My favorite thing is to nuke Tiger 1 and Tiger 2s with it.

Now that I think about it

Why are MLRS systems, specially WW2 ones so expensive compared to other premiums of the same rank?
They tend to have the price tag of a premium that is 1-2 ranks up instead. Only exception was the Type 75 MLRS which has the same price as it’s buddies of rank V

what’s the caliber of those rockets btw?

10.5cm

That’s pretty good
Any more info on the TNT equivalent?

Well technically they aren’t rockets those are cannons, I’ll need to ask someone on the discord for specifics
