totally agree with monktrade & wbill, that's about what I was thinkin ( although not quite as in-depth as there went)
now I got a question. since we're on the topic of rocket launchers on the backs of vehicles, why are the russian launchers on the backs of Zis-5 trucks called "Stalin Organs"? they bear no resemblence to organs, as they have no pipes, but rather the rockets are slung onto racks. plz answer that one for me...
