From the publisher: A survey of Soviet and Russian Federation MRLs from the beginning of their development in 1938 to the present. Focuses on the history, design, and specifications of self-propelled ground-based MRL systems and also covers towed, static, railway, and naval mounts, as well as the many variants of the principal systems.

FSM says: The Germans had their Nebelwerfers, the Americans their Calliope — MRLs have always made a great impression on modelers’ workbenches as well as in the field. The Studebaker truck-based Katyusha is perhaps the best known of World War II Soviet MRLs, but modelers will get an extra bang out of the many variations on the concept presented in Prenatt’s book, from early development to contemporary warfare.
