Armed Forces of Ukraine began to use the American HIMARS multiple launch rocket system against Russian targets – video

American multiple launch rocket systems M142 HIMARS arrived in Ukraine and started working. A video of the application of the system was published by the Ukraine Weapons Tracker project (Twitter). The authenticity of The Insider video was confirmed by analysts from the Conflict Intelligence Team.

On the eve of the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov reported that the American HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems are already in Ukraine. “Thanks to my colleague and friend Lloyd J. Austin III for these powerful tools!” Reznikov wrote.

The M142 HIMARS is based on the US Army's three-axle FMTV wheeled chassis and can carry six MLRS rockets or one ATACMS operational-tactical ballistic missile.

Depending on the ammunition, the range of destruction is from 45 to 500 km.

Earlier, Biden, in his column for The New York Times, said that the United States would help its allies in Europe to abandon Russian energy resources and supply Ukraine with “more advanced missile systems,” but would not allow Ukraine to “shell territories outside the country’s borders.” The United States does not want a "war between NATO and Russia," he said.

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev reacted to this with a threatening remark: “Reasonable! Otherwise, when attacking our cities, the Russian Armed Forces would have fulfilled their threat and struck at the centers of these criminal decisions. Some of them are not located in Kyiv at all. What's next, no need to explain.
