This 240-Rocket Semi Truck Means Business

The Multiple Cradle Launcher has up to six times the firepower of other multiple rocket launchers.

Sometimes one or two rockets just won't do, and you need 239 or 240. That's the thinking behind the Jobari Defense Systems Multiple Cradle Launcher (MCL). Developed in the United Arab Emirates, MCL can ripple fire more than two hundred rockets at some unfortunate target, saturating an area with tens of thousands of lethal steel balls.

The MCL consists of an Oshkosh Defense 6×6 Heavy Equipment Transporter—known in the US Army as the M1070 HET. The M1070 is used by the Army to haul Abrams tanks, and towards that end has eight wheels and a 700 horsepower Caterpillar six cylinder turbocharged diesel engine.

Got it.  A great big Katyusha.
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!
