US HIMARS deployed to Ukraine.
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS, pronounced "high-mars") is an American manufactured multiple launch rocket system. It is mounted on an M1140 medium truck frame and carries one pod which can either launch six Guided Multiple Launch rockets or one ATACMS missile.
Lockheed Martin's Missiles and Fire Control division builds the HIMARS vehicle, the pod, and its accompanying missiles.
The Russian Hurricane M1 has been dubbed the 'HIMAR killer'.
Multiple Rocket Launch Systems are the backbone of any Soviet / Russian army. There are, only to name some of many, the GRAD (Short-range), Uragan (middle-range) and Smerch (long-range) MLRS systems. The Russian Smerch is comparable to the American HIMARS system.
