[QUOTE=SQB;187524]I was just simply amazed, the dust flinging up off the ground as i swooped over the forests, peering over out of my canopy as i tried to spot the burning rocket launching vehicle things (imagine a GRADS system but WW2, i dont know what they are called) and tanks.

USSR used Katyusha multiple rocket launchers. Various types, number and size of missiles. German troops nicknamed them "Stalin Organs".

Germans had a similar weapon called a Nebelwerfer. Allied troops called them "Moaning Minnies"
