-The RBU-1200 is an anti-submarine rocket launcher system that fires 213mm rockets equipped with depth charges. The launcher system itself is typically mounted on the deck of a ship and can fire up to 12 rockets in rapid succession.

-Each rocket is propelled by a solid-fuel rocket motor and has a range of approximately 1,500 meters. The rocket is unguided and uses a simple impact fuse to detonate its depth charge payload upon impact with the water. The depth charge itself is designed to sink to a predetermined depth before exploding, creating a shockwave that can damage or destroy a submarine.

 The RBU-1200 launcher system is equipped with a simple sighting system to help the operator aim the rockets at the target. The operator can adjust the angle of the launcher to compensate for changes in range or depth.

+The RBU-1200, also known as the Smerch-2, is a Soviet-designed anti-submarine rocket launcher system that was developed in the 1960s. The system was widely used by the Soviet Navy during the Cold War era and was later exported to other countries. The RBU-1200 was highly effective in detecting and neutralizing enemy submarines, making it a crucial weapon system in naval warfare.

-The Soviet Navy received the British Mark 10 Hedgehog Mortar as Lend-Lease from the British during World War II. After the war ended, they began developing their own improved version of this weapon system for destroying enemy submarines which became the RBU-1000. In 1955, an improved version of the design came out for smaller vessels the RBU-1200. The RBU-1200 is a five-tube launcher controlled by a PUS-B “Uragan” (Slavic for “hurricane”) fire control system. The RBU-1200 projectiles used solid rocket fuel for launches and was also intended for use against enemy torpedoes. The weapon was notably used on the [[MPK Pr.201K|Pr.201]] and [[MPK Pr.12412|Pr.12412]] which were both dedicated ASW patrol craft classes.
