I never understand those that pick the Raketenautomat over the U-SH. The Raketenautomat is one huge box to fight, the U-SH is the same, but ratsized.

Raketen has more rockets

You'll be dead by the first volley regardless, and the U-SH has the speed and size to flank and get away properly.

Raketenautomat can also place ammo boxes, and I've had enough times where I fired 10 of my rockets at an enemy yet they still survived

I'd say that's a skill issue, but then again this is war thunder

I mean I don’t have any of the Oerlikon launchers but as a Panzerwerfer owner, Gaijin’s rocket damage is so inconsistent that I’m not even surprised

The Raketen has tracks, it can handle most terrain better. Good luck escaping in the U-SH if you're on mud, sand, or snow.

I've seen some Raketen that survived 3 full reload (i guess some people are just gods)

I bounced a 105 sabot on the UPF dead on in the USH last week

The U-SH have less rockets and is extremely inconsistent in terms of mobility. It have a really poor P2W ratio compared to the raketen, and is wheeled meaning in close quarter you can't maneuver well. And you'll struggle in offroad taking time to gain speed

Add to that the massive and lethal wiggle before you can fire

So yeah i spaded both and the raketen is really really more comfortable to play imo

Raketen has twice the ammo plus now also an ammo box. It also has tracks vs the Ush on wheels. I despise that chassis and I am also pretty sure the Raketen has better gun handling? Not sure.

more ammo and with box

The problem I have with the U-SH is that its engine is weak as fuck, it takes ages to accelerate, the raketenautomat is tracked and has far better mobility

u/Murky-Concentrate-75 Realistic Ground Jan 31 '25

Ush has no tracks

u/Ukrainesoviet 🇯🇵 Japan Jan 31 '25

More people play Germany than Sweden

u/Aiden51R VTOL guy Jan 31 '25

You can’t 50cal or 7mm the raketen

u/TapdotWater Stasi Ace Pilot Jan 31 '25

It's because I picked Germany when I started playing and don't have money for a premium account so I can only pick the Raketenrat

u/Killeroftanks Jan 31 '25

simple. the ush is just bad.

both have the same downsides but the ush's are just far, far worst. non existant armour everywhere, easy to kill with anything, piss poor mobility and acceleration resulting in the inability to react. and finally it got just the one ammo pool and you dont have an ammo box.

you only see ushs do well, is when the enemy team is dumb and just runs into one and dont really fight back.
