I think one of the Soviet Tech tree SP artillery pictures should be replaced with Katyusha Truck as Katyusha was one of the most used Rocket artillery in the Soviet Union in WW2. It was fast enough to flee from the counter attacks which what SP artillery is suppose to be.
Pls im begging that you would replace one of the SP artillery pictures with Katyusha Truck. They were very nice trucks and they were effective. (kinda)
Tho i think it should be lvl 1 SP artillery as Katyusha was very inaccurate thus making it perfect for being weaker than it actualy was!
Please do it in the next update or update after that.
Katyusha Truck Sronk!

I agree with this.
The Katyusha is apparently one of the first Self-Propelled artillery used by the USSR, though it delivers rockets making it rocket artillery.
Its shoot-and scoot approach, being fast enough to escape counter-battery fire, certainly seems accurate.
As to effectiveness, it was quite feared. While inaccurate, 4 such trucks could supposedly release the same explosive power as 72 conventional artillery pieces. One interesting thing is it could take an hour to reload. Now what else does...
While it would be up to the developers to decide, I think a higher level than 1 makes sense but perhaps not elite or max levels. Though it was used after the war and can in fact be found used today.
It is a very famous truck and in other games graphically represents soviet units. Having a blurb and a photo seems quite reasonable.

The Kayusha is a type of rocket artiallry first built and fielded by the Soviet Union in WW2. Mulitiple Rockets Launchers such as these deliver explosivs to a target area more quickly than convential artiallry, but with lower accuarcy and requiring long reload's. (Sorry English Typing )
Thats why it would be a perfect SP artillery as it wouldnt be overpowered stats :=)
Or if they just dont want it do be SP artillery they need to add Rocket Artillery unit types.

Well it would be balanced stats as Katyusha was very powerful yet very inaccurate and reloaded slowly.

I think that would be a great idea for another secret unit. I think it could be used as a research tangent of regular rockets (similarly to how rocket fighters are researched) where instead of needing an airport to launch they could launch anywhere except ocean convoys. Actually now that i think about it, it would just be a RRG with a lot of damage and one use.

one use but i hoped it should be like artillery as These trucks were very able to retreat from attacking force.
Just their damage needs to be lowered down alot.
Like for example this type of artillery "rocket Artillery" should be mostly effective against Infantry and Buildings as it doesnt have armor piercing. Tho it should do some sort of damage to armor. and of course it cannot shoot air craft (otherwise the shooter would be a Frikking LEGEND!)
Edit: actualy they should be like commando units. Very Expensive (even tho in history it was cheap but just for the sake of the game)
And you should only be able to produce it in your capital.
Heres what damage i can think of: Infantry: 15dmg, Armour: 3.5 dmg, Aircraft: none, Ships: 1, Submarines: 0.5.
