After the end of the Second World War, the rocket launcher in Škoda, the Brno Armory and the VTÚ (Military Technical Institute) began to develop in Czechoslovakia. In 1949, further development was limited to only two types of rocket launchers developed at Skoda. They were rocket launchers caliber 130 mm (type RK-2) and 210 mm ([ url=/topic/view/129220/CZK-RK-3-210mm-raketomet] RK-3[/url]). Prototype rocket launcher RK-2 was completed and tested in early 1950. Further development of the rocket launcher threatened stop because it was not unified with Soviet technology. Based on the opinion of Soviet expert advisers, the development of the rocket launcher finally continued. The issue of rocket launcher transportation remained unresolved. It was tried to place it on a separate carriage on a two-wheeled chassis, to place it on a half-track armored personnel carrier OT-810, but the truck proved to be the best [ url=/topic/view/12731] Studebaker[/url]. Finally, it was decided to place a rocket launcher on the body of an all-terrain truck Praga V3S. At the military parade 09.05. 1956, the rocket launcher was presented to the public for the first time.

130 mm rocket launcher vz.51 is a reactive artillery weapon, used for mass firing on larger areas. It is designed to destroy the enemy's manpower, to destroy enemy positions and firepower, to destroy trenches and shelters. The rocket launcher is mounted on an off-road truck P V3S. To increase combat readiness can be transported over a shorter distance - 20 - 30 km even charged. A single rotating missile charge with a fragmentation grenade is used for firing. 130 mm rocket launcher vz.51 is an artillery weapon without recoil and without recoil when firing, which works on the principle of using reactive force. The interior of the missiles has no grooves, but four guide ribs. Stabilization of the projectile in flight is achieved by a large rotation of the projectile (missile charge), which is about 16,000 rpm. It fires from 32 missiles missile shrapnel weighing 24.2 kg. Each rocket launcher forms a separate unit capable of firing, even if other rocket launchers are decommissioned. The firing of the salvo or individual shots is performed by means of an electric trigger mounted on the left side of the rocket case, housed in a rocket case mounted on the carriage.


The rocket launcher consists of:
- a bundle of rockets,
- mounts ,.
- triggering device,
- missile magazines,
- sights and fuses.
Sights: Delový zameriavač vz.38/50.
Aim - range: through driver's cab: + 12 to 50 °
- outside the driver's cab 0 to 50 °.
Measurement - range 240 ° (120 ° on each side)
Max. range: 8,200 m
Rocket weight in kg:
- in firing position: 8.512
- on the march: 8,900
Max. transport speed: 60 km/h.
The rocket launcher was able to launch 32 pieces of 130 mm unguided rockets weighing 24.2 kg, moving at a speed of 410 m/s to a distance of 8200 m for 30 seconds.

vz. 51 in Austria
Rocket launchers vz. 51 have been to Austria delivered between the years 1959 to 1961 in the number of 18 pieces (in 1961 were delivered 2 pieces) for armed with 3 batteries. In 1962, then still facing 2 raketometné of the superstructure. It can be assumed that the rocket launchers have been since 1963, introduced into the armament raketometných batteries Even. sections in Artillery regiment 1 (garrison Baden), Artillery regiment 3 (crew Salzburk) and from the year 1968, apparently also in Even. section Artillery regiment 2 (crew Fehring). In the course of services at Bundesheeru were the original bogies Praga V3S replaced by the austrian Steyr 680 M3. All 18 thus adjusted to the rocket launchers used at the 2. artillery battalion (crew Gratkorn) still in the mid 80's. years.

Diskuse

In the museum in the british Aldershot had a photo of a rocket launcher vz. 51 on the PV3S from some middle east war (I believe that the Egypt-Israel) with the description of the "rocket launchers of soviet origin, left behind by a receding hairline...units on the battlefield.
The manager of the museum was a bit "flummoxed" when he realized that
1. has in the exposure of the flaw and someone noticed her (by the way, wasn't the only one)
2. in such a small country, what was the former Czechoslovakia was developed that kind of weapon, and in addition, was exported to the Middle East

I'm not totally sure, but I have the impression, that on my second visit in the same museum has already been corrected....

130 mm rocket launchers vz.51 were initially concentrated in separate rocket divisions of the corps set or subject to divisions. Missile divisions of all-army divisions were established in 1950 and 1951. To ensure a sufficient number of 130 mm rocket launchers vz. 51 were armed with 120 mm mortars. The rocket divisions disappeared either during the reorganization in the summer of 1958, or were in 1961 in a reduced form incorporated into the divisional artillery units, thus losing the character of separate units.


The composition of the so-called corps set in the years 1951-1956 included the following artillery units:
artillery regiment, missile division, anti-tank division.


These were the following departments:


1st Army Corps Banská Bystrica
- 41. artillery regiment Brezno
- 96. rocket launcher Jelšava
- 41st Anti-Tank Division Rimavská Sobota


2nd Army Corps Písek
- 42. artillery regiment Písek
- 97. rocket launcher Sand
- 42. antitank section Sand


3rd Army (Rifle) Corps Pilsen
- 43rd Artillery Regiment Rokycany
- 98th Rocket Division Rokycany
- 43rd Anti-Tank Division Příchovice


4th Army (Rifle) Corps Brno
- 44th Artillery Regiment Holesov
-99. Holešov rocket launcher
- 44th Anti-Tank Division Bučovice)
All the above departments were abolished on October 1, 1956 and used for the construction of other departments. At the same time, their corps headquarters disappeared.


On the foundations of the 96th Missile Division in Jelšava and the 99th Missile Division in Holešov. The 313rd Holeovet Brigade was formed in the Holešov garrison. The brigade was part of the 6th Artillery Division, subordinate to the headquarters of the 2nd Military District. The brigade was on the so-called reduced numbers and in peacetime it consisted of two divisions, the first of three and the second of two batteries. It had a total of 20 rocket launchers 130 mm. It existed only briefly and in the fall of 1960, it was disbanded. The technology and people were used to create rocket batteries for motorized regiments.


As of October 1, 1956, the 97th Rocket Squadron Písek and the 98th Rocket Squadron Rokycany further terminated their activities. On the basis of the abolished divisions, the 323rd Missile Brigade was formed in Příbram, which formed part of the 4th Artillery Division, subordinated to the headquarters of the 1st Military District. The brigade was on the so-called reduced numbers and in peacetime it consisted of two divisions, the first of three and the second of two batteries. It had a total of 20 rocket launchers 130 mm. It existed only briefly and in the fall of 1960, it was disbanded. The technology and people were used to create rocket batteries for motorized regiments.


The artillery divisions created on October 1, 1951 included:
* 323rd Rocket Brigade Příbram from the group
4th Artillery Division Jince and subject to the headquarters of the 1st Military District
* 313rd Missile Brigade Holešov from the group
6th Artillery Division Holešov subject to the headquarters of the 2nd Military District

Army artillery
Rocket regiments of all-army armies were created in the Czechoslovak Army in 1985 (for the 1st Army) and 1986 (for the 4th Army). However, due to the lack of people for their personnel fulfillment, these were only war-based units. 54 rocket launchers were prepared for each regiment

Igniter nz-60v for 130 JRRO RM51
Adjusting the function is done by removing or leaving the hood on - with the hood on the function is jerky, without the hood it is shattering.


Description:
1 - lighter body
2 - needle punch
3 - inertia firing pin
4 - fuse holder
5 - ball
6 - case
7 - needle spring
8 - diaphragm
9 - spring of the recovery firing pin
10 - rosette
11 - stopper
12 - ring
13 - cap
14 - ring
15 - detonator M
16 - action cartridge
17 - primer case
18 - hood
19 - sealing ring (not drawn)
I beg to differ, as this fuze is cleared by air pressure when the bullet flies, shooting with the hood is not possible in any case and the hood is removed. This is a head-on, instant, impact/inertia type, non-locking, mask-safe, muzzle-type lighter.
