It may not actually be worth a damn, since I doubt they have any idea how to usefully aim it other than the traditional third world "spray and pray" method, but it is an excellent example of adaptation.
In this case, adapting an aircraft rocket pod to a *very* field-expedient ground-mount.
H/t Kevin.

Unless they have a

ten-klick piece of string and an FO who's a world-class sprinter...
Wonder how far those things can fly with the right launch angle?
Of course, that WAS pretty much the idea behind Rolling Thunder. Close is good enough...

Depends on propellant age and condition. I've seen references varying from 5km to 10km. I know for sure that the ones the dirtbags used to drop on us were fired from considerably closer (about 3km), but they were always high-angle launches.
And the same for missions with the Big Boys' toys!
before firing, or does it go away by itself? If it stays, how much reflected blast
