Ukraine War: HIMARS rocket system used to strike Russian ammunition depots



Defence and Security Analyst Professor Michael Clarke looks at the HIMARS mobile rocket systems which Ukrainian forces used to hit a Russian ammunition depot, causing one of the biggest explosions in the war so far.

Prof Clarke says the HIMARS are causing many problems for Russian forces because they can’t locate them.

  1. THE DANGER POSSED BY THE IRANIAN DRONES CAN'T BE UNDERESTIMATED, THAT'S WHERE THE GEPARDS IN LARGE NUMBERS WOULD BE CRUCIAL FOR THE UKRANIAN ARMY TO ADVANCE ON THE BATTLEFIELD, C'MON NATO, BRING YOUR INVENTORY OUT TO HELP UKRAINE FINISH THIS INDEPENDENCE WAR AGAINST THE RUSSIAN OPPRESSORS

  2. ince Ivan the Terrible, Russia has never known democracy, liberty, ethical governance, and the basic freedoms we hold so dear. From Czarist times, Communism and Lenin, the butcher Stalin, through the fall of the Soviet Union and the rise of Putin’s kleptocracy, the Russian people have never known moral or ethical leadership, whether from the politicians or the compromised Russian Orthodox Church. The consequence of this is that the Russians have never had a living, positive example of ethical training or development. From the lowest to the highest strata of Russian society, they are bereft of any effective mortal compass. What does the future hold? It looks like a very grim future for Russia. How will they change? How will they mature? How will they ever enjoy freedom?

  3. I saw an interview yesterday in which a Ukrainian official said that they were going to use the HIMARS systems to fire on Crimea. Crimea is largely civilian, isn't it? Are people aware that civilians are also being hit by HIMARS which are not being aimed properly in other areas? There are videos of Ukrainian soldiers trying to aim them, and saying that it is guesswork as they do not speak the language of the input systems. There are also Interpol reports that weapons intended for Ukraine are being sold in the black market. I am not sure the public would agree on the government policies of sending in rockets if they were given a better understanding of what is going on, and more information about the Ukrainian regime and the history of the conflict.

  4. At the moment they are the short range MLRS, Long range not arrived yet…Also takes 5 to 6 mins to change the barrel box with onboard hoist, can shoot 6 various types of rockets or 2 missiles. Can go off road, as well as on road.

  5. United Kingdom please send midrange Missiles to Ukraine with range not below 600 Miles, so Ukraine can bomb Moskow!
    This will stop war immediate!
