How does the Chinese 107mm rocket launcher operate?

The standard 107mm rocket launcher uses 12-round bursts for fast firing, short reloading time, and sudden fierce fire, making it a fine weapon for attacking targets at close range.

Unlike in-service rockets from the United States and the Soviet Union, the 107mm rocket is stabilized in flight by turbine rotation. The centerline of the rocket are deflected at a small angle, after the rocket is ignited, the gas pushes the rocket forward on one side, and at the same time pushes the rocket to rotate itself like a shell of an ordinary wire rifled artillery gun, so as to ensure the stability of the shells in flight, if necessary, the 107mm shells can be fired without a launching device, placed directly on the ground, and after aiming, it can be fired with a few ordinary batteries and two ordinary wires or wires.

Generally speaking, the simple launch when the target distance of 1000-1500 meters is more effective. What's more, there have been reports of Afghans using rocks to smash off the back cover of 107-millimeter rockets, laying them in a row on the ground and then firing them by direct fire.

If you want your rockets to hit the target accurately, it's best to build a solid earth and stone launching pad on the ground, with a flat surface on which to place the rockets, and a flat surface that is close to the length of the rockets, to ensure that the rockets are stabilized when they take off.

Of course, the 107mm rockets can also be placed in building windows, car roofs and other places to launch, but no matter how to launch, the launchers need to pay attention to avoid the launch of the rocket engine exhaust damage.

The 107 rocket's casing has a white marking line in the same direction as the rocket's flight direction for aiming during simple launches. At the same time, manufacturers of 107 rockets prepared a very lightweight caliper-type sights, with distance and orientation scales, it is stuck on the rocket and the white line aligned, "three points and one line" precise targeting, you can ensure the accuracy of the actual shooting in the simple launch.
