Raketenwerfer 43 rocket launcher 8,8 cm. 1/35 Dragon-6097

Description

The Raketenwerfer 43, or “rocket launcher 43”, was an anti-tank weapon used by German forces during World War II. It was designed to provide a fast and effective response against enemy tanks. This portable rocket launcher weighed about 12 kilograms and could fire high-explosive projectiles at distances of up to 150 meters. Its design included a launch tube mounted on a folding tripod to stabilize the weapon during firing. Although it was less accurate and had a shorter range than other anti-tank systems of the time, the Raketenwerfer 43 was highly effective in close combat.
