Quick Glance: The rocket artillery used in Ukraine originated in WWII battlefields.
- The US-made rocket artillery deployed by Ukraine to target Russian ammunition dumps and command centers has been dubbed "a game changer," although the weapon is a descendant of the famed "Katyusha" rocket launcher used by Soviet troops against Nazi invaders during World War II.Katyusha is more than just a World War II weapon.
- "The fin-stabilized rocket was simple to produce, but relatively inaccurate," author James Prenatt said in his book "Katyusha."
- The M270 Multiple Rocket Launch System, which is mounted on a tracked launcher, was accepted by the United States in 1980.
- Today's multiple rocket launchers are more sophisticated, computerized, and precise.
