It became known how much HIMARS Ukraine can still count on

Ukraine can count on further deliveries of HIMARS missile systems from the United States and other Western countries. This was stated in an interview by the head of the armed forces committee of the US House of Representatives Adam Smith for Radio Liberty. He stressed that Washington is ready to provide Ukraine with as many HIMARS as it can. It is not a fact that we have 50 such installations in our arsenal. I think now the goal is to reach the number of 25-30 rocket launchers. It will be a combination of HIMARS and several MLRS systems from the UK and other countries, Smith said. He emphasized that reaching the mark of 50 or 60 installs would be difficult, but 25 or 30 is a realistic figure. In addition to the systems themselves, you need to provide as much ammunition and missiles for them as possible. It should be noted that the Pentagon announced on the eve that Ukraine as a whole will receive 22 HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems from the United States and partners. At this time, the United States has already provided Ukraine with 12 HIMARS systems. Note that the American rocket artillery system, developed in the late 1990s. This system is designed for shoot-and-scoot tactics. , HIMARS is a truck that carries six multiple rocket launchers or one MGM-140 ATACMS missile, hitting targets at a distance of 300 kilometers. HIMARS are designed to destroy areas of concentration of artillery systems, air defense systems and fire support, trucks, combat vehicles and armored personnel carriers, as well as to provide fire support to their units.
