We should build modified HIMARS/M270 MLRS launchers for the rebooted Ground Launched Cruise Missile, or (land launched tomahawk)

We can go even further with modified variations for other missiles such as, the SM-6 Standard Missile 6, LRASM (Long Range Anti-Ship Missile) or really any missile capable of being launched from the Mk41 launcher...

Tracked universal M270 MLRS launcher. I offer separate cabin and a trailer with installation with tilt rotation

[istvansipos]

in the Apache video (f.e), you mention some actions from its history. I kind of miss that from most of the videos. These things are designed for war so it is always interesting to know how they perform in war.
anyway, I've seen enough so I sub now

'
american M270 MLRS is a so beautifully missile launcher system...
america can make it many more MLRSs with better long range missiles, better stronger exlposive TNTs, more faster speeding, great perfect target - hit - destroy any enemy armor weapons - missiles - radars - rockets

Multiple Raunch Locket system???? LOL WTF.

This thing does not have any armor. U can actually shoot through it with a pistol.
