The BM-14-16 (also known as the M-14) is a Soviet 140 mm rocket artillery system developed in the late 1940s. The first units entered service in the early 1950s and for several decades were used by the Soviet Army as well as the armed forces of Warsaw Pact countries and nations in the Middle East. Thanks to the robust and reliable ZiL-157 truck chassis, the launcher could be rapidly deployed to combat positions. The BM-14-16 saw action during armed conflicts in Africa, the Vietnam War, and Middle Eastern wars, where it excelled at targeting area objectives with high effectiveness.
