HIMARS UKRAINE
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS /ˈhaɪmɑːrz/) is a light multiple rocket launcher developed in the late 1990s for the United States Army and mounted on a standard U.S. Army Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) M1140 truck frame.

On this page you can find war footage and HIMARS strikes.
HIMARS has a built-in system for rapid target reprogramming right inside the cabin. This allows the crew to change the target even minutes before launch, after reaching the firing position. Because of this, HIMARS is almost impossible to catch with counter-battery fire - it shoots and relocates immediately.
In Ukraine, HIMARS were used not only against ground targets but also to destroy river crossings. In several cases, strikes were so precise that the rockets literally “cut” pontoon sections, stopping entire columns of equipment.
In 2022, HIMARS was used for the first time to hunt enemy air defense radars. Its precision and speed made it impossible for the systems to relocate in time.
HIMARS can fire not only rockets but also GMLRS rounds with cluster warheads, capable of covering an area the size of several football fields with a single strike
