28 cm WuR 40 information and photos wanted please

[Oracle]

Can anyone put me in the right direction for some photos and basic information on the 28 cm WuR 40 rockets please? I gather that they were fired from an A-frame made out of wood?

Thanks!

Yes, thank you! Please excuse my ignorance but whom would have used these...Waffen-SS and Heer? It seems also that there was a 32 cm version? Also are there any photos of them being fired please? I do not wish to overreach generosity!

Both Heer and SS..

Yes, the 32 cm Wurfkörper looks similar, the both used the same 15 cm Propellant container (15 cm Treinbstaz DO Wu).

28 cm WK was an HE rocket, 32 cm WK an incendiary rocket, it was filled with a flammable mixture.

I've always wondered if there are any recordings of the sound these rockets made. Does anyone know?

Also, what was the trajectory of these like? How far up did they go before returning to the ground?
