RZ.65

Description

The RZ.65 rocket (scale is approximate)

Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

• Bf 109 F-2
• Bf 110 F-2

General info

The RZ.65 rocket weighs 2 kg and has a small warhead of 130 g of HTA (156 g TNT). The rockets have a relatively slow speed of 275 m/s compared to other rockets it is at least 50 m/s slower.

Effective damage

The small warhead makes the rocket almost useless as it cannot kill any tank that has a roof.

Comparison with analogues

Give a comparative description of bombs that have firepower equal to these type of weapons.

Usage in battles

The rockets is only useful against open-topped, and planes. For the rocket to do any damage it has to make a direct hit so aiming it is hard.

Against planes this rocket is really bad because of its slow speed. You have to get close to a slow moving target like bombers but those will most likely shoot you down before you get in range for the rockets to be useful.

Pros and cons

Pros:

Cons:

• Low speed
• Small warhead

History

The RZ.65 was a German experimental unguided rocket used on aircraft, the rocket was initially intended to be against ground targets but it was decided to modify the warhead to be used against air targets. A couple of prototypes of the RZ.65 were created but never put into mass production.

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
