"MORE DAKKA!"

-Myeche MML Track driver, having faced the Horde, unloading his "obsession" on enemy forces

Light artillery has never been a strong point of the Voshkod war machine. To be frank, light anything hasn't been a strong point of the Voshkod war machine. Garlean always demanded more and larger vehicles, more armor, more tonnage, more penetrating power, and the lighter elements of the Voshkod military withered and died. Upon Garlean death, Red Army generals immediately started work on filling the gaps; the Sickle, terror drones, scorchers, lighter flak carriers, and a light all-purpose vehicle in the style of such vehicles like the Ranger and the Humvee.

This vehicle, known as the Loshadka, or "workhorse", served with distinction during the Cold War, carrying artillery, commando teams, officers, and equipment trailers. The machine was also highly modular, with machine-guns, grenade launchers, magnetic shields, and other assorted devices of varying effectiveness.

One of the more successful uses was to tow light artillery pieces of various makes into positions to use for rapidly redeploying support weapons. Eventually, Voshkod command decided to cut out the middleman, bolting a rack of newly-developed MML-20 rocket pods on a Loshadka, along with simple rangefinders and electric firing triggers. The resulting machine was dubbed the Myeche, or Sword.

Moving swiftly over any terrain, the Myeche can quickly redeploy and unleash massive numbers of rockets onto enemy targets. To simplify reloading, the Myeche will completely empty one rocket pod at a time; it cannot fire less than a full pod. The jury-rigged nature makes readying to fire difficult; rockets must be manually prepped. Reload times are long, but not unmanageable; they rely on other Voshkod forces keeping the enemy at arm's length until they ready the next pod.

S-5 rockets are small and notably inaccurate, but through saturation, they can suppress large groups of infantry, destroy light vehicles, and reduce terrain conditions enough that tanks and ships will have to reduce speed to move safely. Unfortunately, the lack of explosive potential makes it difficult to damage buildings. One of the quirks about the rockets is that they have the ability to float on water; by turning off impact detonation, they can be launched into the water and used as temporary defenses, though they will quickly disperse and sink.
