Decided to write a short description for this one, as they almost always seems to be to big for the 2000 characters limit. :/

Description

Devolved as a direct response to RHTT-7-A "Earthshaker", the BM-39 "Hurricane" was Empire’s version for bringing total carnage on a battlefield. Basically a gigantic 11 barrel Multiple Rocket Launch System each measuring 390mm in diameter mounted on a gription field capeble hover sledge, this simple but lethal machine can literally destroy anything in a large area with its incendiary warhead that can even melt the strongest metal. Powerfull and deadly, this unit suffers form from slow reloading time and paper thin armor that and creates a massive fireball upon it own destruction that consumes friend and foe alike.
