NATO trains with HIMARS rocket launchers in Romania

NATO forces in Romania showed off the HIMARS rocket system on Thursday as French, Romanian and U.S. troops took part in artillery exercises.

The drills showcased the U.S.-made High Mobility Artillery Rocket System as well as the older Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS). Both systems have seen use by Ukrainian forces during the Russian invasion of the country, and Kyiv has praised HIMARS for battlefield successes such as destroying Russian warehouses and command posts.

HIMARS = high mobility against russian soldier

[oldquaker]

Well, Romania, Poland and the baltic states are the only countries in NATO that would respond to a russian aggression without second thoughts. Thos countries have suffered a lot because of Russia. No one in the world understands Russias threats more than those countries.

God bless you guys! I'm glad you're on our side!

Love this. If Russia makes the foolish move to invade other countries, Saint HIMARS is waiting

[Igotcha]

Combined arms, I don’t think the orcs have even heard of that before..

[c.a.saunders]

Excellent. It's always a great thing to see our incredible allies cross training in interoperability on these highly effective platforms. Thank you to our Romanian partners, and all participating member nations for this very important work.

Glory to God,
Victory for Ukraine,
Rise Free Nations!

It is normal for French American troops etc. to be stationed with heavy weapons or simply to be in Romania. After all, Romania is part of NATO, so what is happening in Romania is perfectly normal

What do russian soldiers say when they are blown up, and their bodies fly off earth and past the moon?
They say HI MARS.

România nr. 1.💪💪💪. 🇺🇲Knows that😉

Special units arrived at the front, specializing in identifying the location of heavy weapons with a view to their subsequent destruction.
From today our special forces are working on helicopters equipped with promising Hermes-A missiles, the launch of which will leave no chance for any modern tank in the world. Tanks are hit 15 kilometers away by homing missiles with the help of illumination of ground-based devices from special forces or by detection by helicopters 25 kilometers away.

👌 wow what a American lightning 🌩 😳 👏

[ioanvalentinpavlov]

They should ask the Ukraineans how to do it effectively 😁

[juststuff]

I hope we don't need that equipment back?

[pedrooquendo]

When this madness will madness🤬will stop

[Daniel._.b]

For us Romanians almost every joke or bad stereotypes have to do with Russia, they invades us so many times so if we have the opportunity yo defend us we're gonna love to blast some rockets at Russia 😁

How about putting those HIMARS to good use and "train" in southern Ukraine. That was not a question.

[Robolaralobarar]

Show of.force

[aliancemd]

That soldier kept emphasizing that US controls what these systems can fire at…
