Hmmm ... "Almost every Soviet military aircraft of World War II was known to carry RS-82 and RS-132, often using field-made launchers." ... another AH2 conspiracy against Russian planes. :D

only at begin of war
later they figure out diferent tactics and use mixed formations
RS was poor weapon to hunt tanks laters models, PZkW, 4, 5, 6 was quite safe.
But RS was very good for fighting troops, road traffic, camps, trains, trucks, light armor.
As for anti-tank weapon they use bombs

So, basically... that means they're useless, aye?
