After Ukraine received U.S. HIMARS, the Russians began to hunt for them. In order to secure the launchers, the Ukrainian Armed Forces created wooden mock-ups of them.

A Ukrainian official anonymously told The Washington Post. Despite the fact that the mock-ups are made of wood it is almost impossible to distinguish them from real multiple rocket launchers through a drone camera. Thus, the Rashists have already spent ten Kalibr cruise missiles worth $65,000,000 on the fake HIMARS.

By the way, this explains why the rf Ministry of Defense so often reports on the destruction of U.S. HIMARS. Although, in fact, the Rashists have not destroyed a single real launcher.
