Height 3.65 m
Crew 3
Engine V-8 360 hp diesel
Suspension 8x 8 wheeled
Operational range 500km km
Speed 85 km/h
Launcher:
Rail length 3200 mm
Caliber 265 mm
Rails 18
Rate of fire 2 rounds/s
Maximum range 25,000 m
Sights: panoramic telescope
Rockets:
M-556 Cluster munition, anti-personnel 500 kg 3.05 m 350 kg 175 × 2 kg, each with 444 fragments (4.5 g each)
M-556A Cluster munition, self guided anti-tank 345 kg 23 × 15 kg
M-556B Cluster munition, AT minelets. 350 kg 70 × 5 kg mines
M-556C Cluster munition, AP minelets. 350kg 175x 2.5kg anti-personel mines
M-556D Cluster munition, Smoke grenades, 350 kg 1400 x .25 kg smoke grenades
M-557 HE-Fragmentation. 500 kg 1000 × 0.25 kg fragments, 100kg RDX bursting charge
This Airburst fragmention rocket deliviers a massive swarm of .25 kg tugnsten balls that will rip personel and lightly armored vehicles to shreds. With preset airburst altitudes of 10 meters, the ball bearings are directed in a cone with a 30 meter kill zone directly below the rocket.
M-558 Thermobaric 350 kg warhead, 500 kg total
The M-558 Thermobaric Rocket is a rocket containing 350kg slurry (ammonium nitrate, aluminium powder and polystyrene) and a kicker charge of 15 kg of H-6. This gives it a far superior blast pressure than a conventional HE rocket.
M-559 Chemical Rocket 350 kg (VX, Sarin, Mustard Gas, Tabun, Soman, Agent Orange, Agent Purple, Agent Pink, Agent Green, Agent Blue)
Although primarily for the deployment of Chemical weapons, it can also be used to deploy defoliation agents
The M-55 MLRS "Sweeping Death" is an easy to mass produce Multiple Launch Rocket System. The rocket launcher itself is mounted on an M-6 8X8 chasis. The M-55 is the ultimate "shoot and scoot" vehicle, with a high speed and high rate of fire, it can launch its rockets, run, reload and fire again quickly when it has the correct support. Its long operational range and high speed give the capability to hit a vast range of targets from different locations quickly. The Cab is protected from the fumes and back blast.
