Sudan has created its own version of the Grad multiple launch rocket system. The lightweight version, designated Taka-2, is mounted on the platform of the Unimog all-terrain vehicle.

The launcher has eight guides for the use of 122-mm unguided ammunition.

The length of the starting pipes is 3000 mm. In the unloaded state, this package weighs only 920 kg. The maximum firing range is 20,000 meters.

It is assumed that the Soviet high-explosive fragmentation shells M-21OF, having a mass of 66 kg and an 18-kilogram warhead, were taken as a basis. They can be used at temperatures up to +50 degrees.

The maximum firing range is 20,000 meters. Weight-more than 6100 kg. The crew consists of four people. Loading and aiming are carried out in manual mode. The speed on the highway can reach 80 km / h. The power reserve is 760 km.

Compared with heavier modifications, this MLRS has greater mobility and is designed for operations in mountainous and desert areas.

According to its concept, it resembles the Grad-V installation developed in the 60s and used in Afghanistan as part of the 40th Army, made on the Shishigi-GAZ-66 chassis. However, the Soviet machine had 12 guides and could be parachuted.

Also, their versions of the BM-21 were produced in Egypt, Iran, Turkey, Italy, North Korea, Czechoslovakia, Romania, etc.
