The BM-14 (BM for ''Boyevaya Mashina'', 'combat vehicle'), is a Soviet-made 140mm multiple launch rocket system (MLRS), normally mounted on a truck. The BM-14 can fire 140mm M-14 rockets with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead, a smoke warhead or a chemical warhead. It is similar to the BM-13 "Katyusha" and was partly replaced in service by the 122mm BM-21 Grad. Launchers were built in 16 and 17-round variants. The rockets have a maximum range of . The weapon is not accurate as there is no guidance system, but it is extremely effective in saturation fire. ==Variants== * BM-14 (8U32) - 16-round model (two rows of 8), launcher mounted on the ZiS-151 truck.
