The First Day of Katyushas in Foxhole

[@igncom1]

Logistics is the difference between arming every man with a rifle, and arming every man with a multiple launch rocket system.

[@bruhlol2744]

no reply, so im gonna say i agree

[@Scarletraven87]

I can counter that with an equal number of mines, and 1 pistol

[@rrosski]

cant hit me with your multiple launch rocket system if i turn off my pc

[@mailman35419]

It's just a multiple rocket launcher. Not a multiple rocket launcher system Because it only fires rockets. MLRS first multiple kinds of different rockets and guided surface to surface missiles. It can't be a "system" if it only fires one thing.

[@Smokecall]

The world of war once logistics becomes instant will be a brutally unchecked world

[@JS-kr8fs]

It costs five Logi players quitting Foxhole to fire this weapon for one minute.

[@TheArklyte]

"You literary can't do anything about Katyushas" I feel like that man have just found out why MLRS are so effective and sought after irl.

[@mailman35419]

It's an MLR not an MLRS. It can only fires one type of rocket. An MRLS fires multiple kinds as well as guided munitions. It can't be a "systsm" if it only fires one thing.

[@TheArklyte]

@@mailman35419 okay, I'll call it РСЗО.

[@salter1630]

@@mailman35419 what? it's called an MLRS because it's a system (truck + launcher) that can fire multiple rockets. That's it. We call the Phalanx a CIWS (Close-in Weapons System) because it's composed of the gun,radar, and FCS, creating a system. A system is when you have several components that interoperate, it has nothing to with specific capbilities.

[@ProfessorSnitch]

I mean, it's not supposed to be real life. I don't play Foxhole, but if I did I'd like to imagine I'd want things to be balanced, not completely 100% realistic.

[@TheArklyte]

@@ProfessorSnitch it's not. Both factions have different equipment. That's the point. Colonials have rocket artillery, wardens have a heavy tank that doesn't suck.

[@stephenlawrence554]

That’s pretty much exactly what katyushas were designed for, saturation bombing the fuck out of a reasonably sized area in a short period, then hauling ass before the enemy got the chance to return the favour

[@carking0138]

I think this is the best comment ever made.

[@crowe6961]

It is often not mentioned that in their first combat deployment, yes, of course the Germans ran for their lives when they were hit by these things, but the Soviet troops fighting them who hadn't been briefed on what the hell was going on did too.

[@matiashogden1240]

My head lecturer in naval operations and tactics always said 'overkill is better than no-kill'. Thanks for embodying that mantra

[@adude8424]

Always overkill. If you find yourself in a fair fight , you done f***ed up

[@fearthewolf1175]

I imagine that as soon as the rockets came out, within seconds people were mass producing them and throwing them onto the field as easily as as picking up a rock and throwing it

[@penial_smasher_500]

i honestly think at one point rockets were out producing rifles and ammo

Gods, that takes me back to the days of the Stonk Exchange, I was part of a lil Coli logi group called CASC, and we fed 8 guns for 3 weeks straight and they never stopped firing onces, we turned the northern side of Jade Cove in a god forsaken waste land with those guns, good times

[@aosebob5382]

Bout the only time they got used 😂😂

[@brigitteabbendis4501]

To be honest, this model of Soviet MLRS looks more like "Andryusha" variant. Which was more deadly in compare to original Katyusha.

[@jakubrzepkowski2290]

Andryusha fired 300mm rockets but it was because of ball like warhead, and that's why it's katyusha (and they possibly made them to have less rails than irl for "balance sake)

[@samspeed6271]

Actually the first truck mounted MLRS used a good ballistic smokeless powder. So germans did classify БМ - 13 as an automaitic flamethrower gun initially. little did they knew russians would actually made self propelled heavy multiple launch rocket flamethrower sistem. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOS-1 The trail after rockets is mostly dust dragged in the low pressure area.
