Reihenwerfer is a German Artillery unit in Steel Division II.
Background[ | ]
Due to deficiencies in industrial capacity, Germany was forced to press captured enemy materiel and vehicles into service, from cars to tanks. The S307(f) was a SOMUA MCG prime mover converted by Major Alfred Becker into an armored half-track. The conversion was compatible with a number of weapon systems and could be tailored for a variety of purposes. The Reihenwerfer was a tiered launcher mounting captured French rockets, designated Granatwerfer 278(f).
In the Pz.Grenadier regiments' heavy companies there are four Reihenwerfer along with a platoon each of S307(f) PaK and U304(f) FlaK.
