We had a "rat patrol jeep" get hit with one, fortunately it was just parked and no one was in it. They would go for Quang Tri air field and hit other targets. One night they hit 3rd Med Laundry. I would not want to be in it's impact area. They were very good with morters. I am glad they did not have a decent launching system for the 122.
