Volunteer Pavel Narozhny posted on his Facebook page a video with the first combat use of HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems in Ukraine. The video was taken at night. At least two MLRS were used for strikes by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
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. MLRS can carry six rockets. The operating range of the HIMARS M142 is from 2 to 500 km (depending on the shells). In our case, HIMARS operate up to 80 km. In total, there are 4 such MLRS in Ukraine now. Yet 4 will transfer to the USA in the near future.
