Raketenwerfer 43 from the right

Here we see a Raketewerfer 43, a rather over-engineering weapon that fired the same 88mm rocket as the Panzerschreck. It had double the range of the Panzerschreck and was more accurate, but was also far more complex and slower to build and only around 3,000 were built, compared to over 300,000 Panzerschrecks!
