The M270 is on tracked vehicles. Have they considered retro fitting the tracks? Placing some launchers on trailers would double the punch. Support units could reload the trailers and take them forward.
The tracks cost more and slow down the vehicle, unless the terrain require tracks. Tracks also cost more. But the tracked MLRS I saw before have double the rocket loads. (12?)
M270 has double the launcher tubes than the HIMARS.. lets not forget that the M270 was around long before the HIMARS. HIMARS carries 6 launch tubes compared to the M270 with 12. The other thing about HIMARS is the fact that the vehicle signature is low. Meaning you cant tell if the HIMARS is in the area compared to the M270 MLRS which is loud.
I dont think the HIMARS was in IRaq. I know the M270 was for sure as we had one on our base and launched rounds every time a fire mission was conducted. regardless the HIMARS is identical to the M270 with half the payload and can go in areas where the M270 cant go.
I still don’t understand what is unique about this system. Compared to the Russian Smerch MLRS, the Iskander OTRK, or the North Korean KN-25, this is a rather weak toy. The United States sent them to Ukraine because they actually have nothing else.
Did you ever back up your claim that this "weapon shocked Russia"? or were you just exaggerating like advertisers do (especially RUclips specific advertisers), not bonafide journalists or documentarians. Clearly I couldn't watch the entire vid because the clickbait was obvious.
I'll explain the reason and you decide. The Russians knew a couple HIMARS were coming, figured they could destroy or deal with them without much effort until their stuff started blowing up around them, far from the front. I'd say that was a shocking experience, being unable to stop the missiles, so they had to relocate and disperse stuff. Similarly, when they knew ATACMS were being sent, they also figured the missiles would be as easily shot down as their own missiles, so again did nothing. Must have been quite a shock when they realized that those air bases in Luhansk and Berdiansk couldn't be protected against the least capable of ATACMS, so now all air bases are outside the range of those missiles.
Right? That’s why the Russian army couldn’t take Kyiv in 72 hours lmao. How long has the war been going on and what’s the casualty count? The numbers sure don’t indicate they could have done it in a month… Russian tech is trash… our old garbage beats their latest tech… how’s that su-57 fellon and t-14 armata? Buahaha 🤡🤡
Himars have been on the battlefield for more than a year now, since Russia took Soledad, severodonestk, backmut, Marynka, Russia just proved you are just a narcissist.

This type of weaponry really changed completely the dynamics of warfare
What is the weapon pictured above? It is not himars?? Misleading clickbait.
c'mon russia says they destroyed 1 million himars already, and all missiles are intercepted!
one thing you don't appreciate until you witness a launch is how loud they are. it's unbelievable.
Some amazing footage here. Nasty weapon

You’ll be shocked by his response.
Thats why dislike from me for him 😅
I think Ukraine needs more of these nice weapons
Ukraine should get a deal on them and buy a bunch
If you want to help Ukraina, your information should be more balanced!

Rysät paska jäykkänä HAIMARSISTA, syytä ollakin. tarkka ja pitkä kantama.

Whatever you say bot boy.
Really? Nothing shocks Russia! What a joke!
The truth shocks Russia.

LOL, yeah!!! Is Russia really freaking out 😮?
