The main goal of the upgrade was to streamline the firing, its accuracy, shorten the preparatory time needed to start firing and leaving the firing position. The main emphasis was laid to automate and simplify operations related to the launch and control of effective fire-mission, resulting in a fully autonomous system capable of immediate reaction without the need for organic integration within firing units with separate firing elements.
The MLRS ( Multiple Launcher Rocket System) is based on the new TATRA T 815-7T3R2T 4x4 .1R chassis of well-proven TATRA FORCE T 815-7 heavy off-road truck, featuring perfect terrain crossability, high speed even in rough terrain condition, low operation cost and high reliability while providing the driver and launcher operators with high driving comfort. The BM-21 MT is powered by a air-cooled four stroke supercharged V-8 producing 270kW. The BM-21 MT can fire all its 40 122mm rockets within 20 seconds. It has a gross weight of 14,850kg (including 40 rockets). |
