And by what we've heard both were far from stellar. Correct me if I'm wring, but Matilda Hedgehog is one off prototype that couldn't even pass testing proper and is known solely thanks to Warthunder where it's also unusable? Given that track record, it's no surprise people started to ridicule the improvised MLRS above too.

@Fruzhin5483 the funniest part isn't even that. Combined with earlier usage of 25mm naval autocannons on same MTLBs implies that russians are stripping and maybe even cutting down ships to "win" in this purely land based(for now) conflict. Old ones first of course, but that implies that their navy is shrinking rapidly from their stated paper numbers to far smaller real numbers of actually new, crewed and maintained vessels. Imagine germans being kicked so hard in 1940 that they decided to strip down Bismark for its secondary guns?

@DaCouchWarrior yep. Well, technically speaking that thing isn't that far removed from Mattress at all, it's the sonar, firing computer and reloading device that made RBU-6000 more modern systems. All of those are massive components not designed for land combat that remained on the ship. So technically yes, it's shorter ranged, but slightly fatter Land Mattress.

Haven't known that it was intended for shore bombardment too and has impact fuzing. That's complicates things.
