Soviet BM-13 Katyusha Rocket Launcher - By Tom Hart


First-time contributor Tom Hart built this Soviet BM-13 Katyusha rocket launcher using a Zil (ЗИЛ) cab and a chassis from a MAC Distribution Models kit. The spare tires and crankshafts are from Roco, the outriggers are a mixture of Roco and Kibri, the diamond plate is from Alloy Forms, tubing from K&S steel, and the launching rack is made of Plastruct beams. The fenders and all the rest were scratchbuilt. The outriggers and rocket launcher also raise and lower.
