    No. built 1 prototype + 4 serial production

    Rate of fire 1 round per 5 minutes

    Not very scary. It’s a parade float.

      But it is a ridiculous monster, and for that alone, I love it.

      Well, it’s intended for nukes. 1 every 5 minutes ought to do the job.

        Yeah but you’re forgetting counter battery fire. It only drives 19 mph. With nuclear artillery on both sides shooting it would be suicide. It’s a pretty stupid weapon.

    When are they rolling these out to the Ukraine? Can’t be any less accurate than the shit they’re hitting schools and hospitals with now.

      Too late, they were sold on the black market in the 90s for a counterfeit Gucci bag and a brand-new Walkman.

    If they stopped too fast, would they fall over?

    Any idea whether it has seen action in Ukraine yet?

      It probably would see action, except Russia probably doesn’t have enough to cannibalize for one working model, lmao
