M270 MLRS: The Incredible Rocket Launch System That Continues to See Combat

They are not the most recent rocket launchers, but oh boy, they are scary. Himars are agile and elegant. This is a monster made for the cold war.

As a Desert Storm veteran, I miss the old school MLRS. It was better, more powerful, but...not very mobile.

Tracked universal MLRS launcher M270. I offer a separate cab and trailer with a tilt and swivel setup. Too much time is spent on turns and the readiness to immediately hit the road and the possibility of professional elongation

WORTHLESSLY OLD SYSTEM.

That's 1.2 million dollars flying into the air

The US does not use the M26 rocket anymore it was exhausted. And they generally don't use any cluster bombs because of the dud rate and risk of collateral damage. Instead they use the M30A1 GMLAHS AW that has a warhead of 161000 tungsten bbs

My father was a 13M for 23 years. Stationed at Ft. Sill. I grew up in Lawton(a place similar to Fayetteville, NC) Lol. I enlisted in 2012 and chose the route of 11B. Went to jump school and RIP(now RASP). Life is weird.

Canada will need thousands of these for sure

I was in A battery 2/18FA, and it was nice that they showcased my brother battery on this video lol.

Allegedly... 😂 i still think the m 270 pinched that design from the U . F . O .show ? I refer to THE SHADOW MISSILE
FIRING TRACKED VEHICLES ?? USED TO TAKE OUT THE INVADING ALIEN SPACECRAFT . 😂

As a 94p mlrs mechanic, 270 are great for war but horrible to work on.

Whatever it is you lost your battle with Taliban 😅

nice video

Double the fire power of the himars

I don’t understand the application of this in guerrilla warfare such as operation Iraqi freedom and operation enduring freedom (Afghanistan). I think maybe in the initial phase of these wars where it was a conventional war with stationary enemy bases and warehouses/supply areas, these would have been BEYOND deadly and would hit targets faster than aircraft would. I was in Afghanistan in 2011, and that phase of the war was just trying to find hiding spots of the enemy and training and creating a local police unit. Enemy would have not stayed in one place long enough to use these and the area would be too small for these batteries.

I was a M270 MLRS crewmen in the early1990s (MOS: 13 Mike). Still is a powerful system.

50 rockets 🚀 x $150,000= $7,500,000.00 just for training 😅❤

Tax dollars 💵 at work 😅😊

Slow but effective

I hope that they can start churning these out like sausages, the Ukraine needs plenty and everyone else will want them too.

Great information. Please also make one video about Turkish made TRG 300 and TRG270 and compare it with US counterparts

Germany sent some of their M270s to Ukraine. It is in operation there

Why do they call it a battery ?

What do you think about South Korean K239 Chunmoo? South Korea also operates M270 and K239. Poland order the K239 instead of M270.

Why are all the stats in metric system?

My granddad used it. This is ancient

Glory to ukraine 🇺🇦

Great piece of equipment

USA make the best military weapons and vehicles

Most destructive weapon system in the world is convincing people to stand outside in the woods away from everyone else while wearing cloth masks. LOL

I first saw that in my life when i played Command and Conquer Tiberian Dawn - always loved those <3

Here are those GLSDBs you ordered!



Merica!

Great to see that currently in a war the 40 times bigger country cannot win that war because the underdog has a few HiMars systems. This is a real gamechanger. 🙂
