The Royal Artillery Mounted Rocket Corps is a distinguished unit depicted in the historical work "Costumes of the Army of the British Empire, according to the last regulations 1812," engraved by J.C. Stadler and published by Colnaghi and Co. between 1812 and 1815. This comprehensive visual documentation was created by Charles Hamilton Smith, an accomplished artist and soldier, who meticulously illustrated the uniforms and appearances of various British military units during the early 19th century.

The Royal Artillery Mounted Rocket Corps was an innovative and specialized unit within the British Army, reflecting the evolving nature of military technology and tactics during the Napoleonic Wars. This corps was specifically trained and equipped to deploy Congreve rockets, a type of early military rocket developed by Sir William Congreve. These rockets were used for bombardment and had a significant psychological impact on enemy forces due to their distinctive noise and unpredictable flight paths.

Smith's work captures the essence of the Royal Artillery Mounted Rocket Corps, showcasing the distinctive uniforms and equipment that set this unit apart from traditional artillery and cavalry units. The engravings by J.C. Stadler are noted for their precision and attention to detail, providing a valuable visual record of the period's military attire and the unique role of the Rocket Corps within the British Army.

The publication by Colnaghi and Co. between 1812 and 1815 ensured that these detailed illustrations reached a wide audience, contributing to the historical understanding of British military uniforms and the innovative use of rocket artillery. Smith's collaboration with Stadler and the esteemed publisher Colnaghi and Co. resulted in a seminal work that remains a significant reference for historians and enthusiasts of military history.

Through "Costumes of the Army of the British Empire," Charles Hamilton Smith not only documented the appearance of the Royal Artillery Mounted Rocket Corps but also highlighted the broader context of military advancements during a pivotal era in British and European history.
