| Notes | The BM-13-16 (Boyevaya Machina) was a self-propelled multiply rocket launcher which had the ability to fire sixteen 132mm rockets in ten seconds. They were initially mounted on the Russian made Zis-6 truck, but were also mounted on the various models sent by the USA in war aid. They were first used against German forces in July 1941 and instantly made an impression. |
