I thank @POTUS Joe Biden @SecDef Lloyd Austin III & the American people.
HIMARS time:good time for Ukrainians and bad time for the occupiers.
Great news on the eve of #Ramstein 6, where I'm going tomorrow. There will be more.
Flashback
HIMARS is an American Multiple Rocket Launcher System. It is based on the US Army FMTV five-ton wheeled chassis. The MLRS can carry six rockets. HIMARS M142 has a range of 2 to 500 km (depending on the projectiles). In our case, the HIMARS operate up to 100 km.
