INSTUCTION SHEET
The Schwerer
Wehrmachtschlepper (sWS) was developed as a medium half-track and used to
transport supplies to front-line troops or as a towing vehicle for the light
artillery. However, on the large rear flat load compartment some other
applications have been developed. One modification was the Panzerwerfer 42 auf
sWS, a 10 barreled 15 cm Nebelwerfer 42 rocket launcher placed over an armored
ammunition storage compartment. The rocket launcher, developed as device to
create smoke screens, was soon used as real artillery able to launch high-explosive
ammunitions. It could shoot the rockets with impressive and deadly
effects. The original structure of the transport vehicle was strengthened with
additional shields to protect the crew from the enemy fire and from the
negative effects of the rocket launcher.
