Why design a Rocket Launcher like a Gun? - Puppchen - Raketenwerfer 43 (2020x40)

Date de diffusion: Jun 28, 2020

In this video Jens Wehner from the Military History Museum Dresden of the Bundeswehr and I talk about the 8.8 cm Raketenwerfer 43 Puppchen/Püppchen. Besides covering the basics like range, introduction, production data and comparsion to similar weapons like the Panzerschreck and Panzerfaust we also ask the question why it was designed like a gun, although it was rocket launcher.
