The missiles can be fired from the tracked M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) and the wheeled M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS). An ATACMS launch container (pod) has one rocket but a lid patterned with six circles like a standard MLRS rocket lid to prevent an enemy from discerning what type of missile is loaded. [1]
With approval for engineering development in 1986 the scope was expanded to include larger diameter submunitions in M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) rockets. [ 1 ] Several successful live-fire tests were conducted in 1989, and production was scheduled for 1994; however, pre-production samples tested in 1993 gave poor results with only ...
It is similar to the M270 multiple launch rocket system and has a two-pod launcher that can fire the MLRS Family of Munitions, including the MGM-140 ATACMS and Precision Strike Missile. [1] It was first shown at Eurosatory 2024 using the chassis of the HX 8x8 tactical truck as a base. [1] [2]

"If you have something without a cab, that’s autonomous, you might be able to employ something longer than ...
It combines the SDB with the M26 rocket, enabling it to be launched from ground-based missile systems such as the M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System and M142 HIMARS. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] The weapon started initial mass production in 2023 and saw its first combat deployment by Ukraine in 2024 during the Russian invasion of the country .
