Historical Information

The 15-cm Nebelwerfer 41 (abbreviated: NbW 41) was one of the most formidable German rocket launchers used during World War II. This weapon entered service in 1940 and was used by the German Army (Wehrmacht) on all fronts—from Russia to North Africa and Western Europe. The Nebelwerfer 41 was unique because it could simultaneously launch several 150 mm rockets, making it an extremely effective fire support tool. It was used in, among others, clashes on the Eastern Front, in Normandy, and in the fighting for Stalingrad.
