Mehrfachraketenwerferlastkraftwagen II

The Mehrfachraketenwerferlastkraftwagen II, abbreviated as MfRwLKW II is a multiple launch rocket system that was developed by Waffenschmiederei Ludwigshafen using the chassis of a OMW Handelsmann Leichte Ausführung from Osthügel Motorenwerke together with the Mehrfachraketenwerfergeschütz 80x32/1740, also developed by Waffenschmiederei Ludwigshafen. The MfRwLKW II was first introduced into active service in II.1747 and replaces the Mehrfachraketenwerferlastkraftwagen I that had been introduced in 1716. While developed by Waffenschmiederei Ludwigshafen, the license for production of the vehicle has been sold to Osthügel Motorenwerke, and production of the vehicle takes place at the Osthügel Motorenwerke factory near Stadt Sankt Ludwigshafen.

Starting in late 1747, Waffenschmiederei Ludwigshafen began testing a prototype of the MfRwLKW II with a reinforced frame and extending beams for stability, that would be a stable platform for a heavier weapons system, with a larger range and heavier payload. Engineers were asked to consider the option that the federation might choose to leave the Dorado Convention during the technical lifetime of the vehicle in their work.
