Just gonna leave this here - yes it's a glass cannon. But a dedicated gunner with a SWC can hit with the RLs, and most vehicles won't survive two volleys to the same armor location. Regular RL rounds for metal armor.

Rocket Queen -- Van, Heavy chassis, Heavy suspension, Large power plant w/SC, Fire Extinguisher, 4 Puncture-Resistant tires, Driver w/BA and 10-pt CA, Gunner w/SWC and BA and 10-pt CA, 5 Linked Rocket Launchers Front, Flaming Oil Jet Back, Plastic Armor: F25, L20, R20, B20, T10, U10, 2 10-pt Wheelguards Back, 2 10-pt Wheelhubs Front, Gear Allocation: [10 lbs.], Acceleration 5, Top Speed 90, HC 2, 6590 lbs., $19825
