The other day The United States announced the supply of HIMARS mobile multiple launch rocket systems to Ukraine with a range of up to 70 km.

According to Matt, the first round of training will take about three weeks.
Recall HIMARS is an American multiple launch rocket system. It was created on the basis of a five-ton FMTV wheeled chassis of the US Army. The RSZV can carry six rockets or one ATACMS operational-tactical ballistic missile. The operating range of the HIMARS M142 is from 2 to 500 km (depending on the shells).
