A nice item from Beltring. Katyusha M-8 rocket. No fuze, no fins, but the two bolts that slot into the guide rail are still there. Seven holes in the nozzle piece for seven cylindrical fuel pellets (not present). Empty warhead. Overall length (without fuze) 630mm, diameter 82mm.

Found one in La Gleize this year. Empty of course but complete with fins etc. I don't collect the russian stuff systematically but I use it for comparison to the german SS-Vielfachwerfer resp. the Panzerblitz I Rocket. If I can manage and if somebody is interested I may take some pics. Cheers nudel

Pictures would be very welcome please. I don't collect Russian stuff either but it is interesting to see for comparison with German items.
