American OTRK M142 HIMARS delivered to Ukraine, similar in range to Russian Iskanders

The United States has completed the transfer of long-range tactical missile systems M142 HIMARS to Ukraine.

In addition to the M270 MLRS tactical missile systems capable of delivering strikes at distances up to 300 kilometers, Ukraine has received tactical missile systems M142 HIMARS capable of striking at distances of up to 500 kilometers. This significantly expands the capabilities of the Ukrainian army, since the territory of Russia falls into the zone of destruction of these complexes.

At the moment, it is known that the process of transferring tactical missile systems M142 HIMARS has been completed. The exact number of these weapons, which are offensive weapons, is not disclosed. However, according to a number of assumptions, we are talking about at least two tactical missile systems capable of interacting with combat aircraft, drones and reconnaissance aircraft, which have again become active in the airspace over the Black Sea.

At the moment, it remains unknown which missiles the United States transferred to Ukraine for these complexes, however, experts believe that the Pentagon sent long-range tactical missiles to Ukraine. In this regard, for Russia, disabling these American weapons may become a priority.

Earlier in Ukraine, American OTRK M270 MLRS were already seen firing.
