My next tank will most likely be a Torro Sturmtiger. I was looking around on Youtube, came across this Sturmtiger that fires rockets.

That looks dangerously fun! Much like this black powder King Tiger.

All that is is a bottle rocket fired from the launcher. If you notice there was a break in the film when the owner had to place and light the fuse.

The second video shows a heat element in the cannon that lights the rocket.

I built a tamiya humvee years ago with a 4 ch radio, i made the turret on the roof rotate and put a switch on a servo and made it fire model rocket motors out of a home made tow missile launcher. Was a real thrill till i dented a washing machine and lit a pine tree on fire.
