Reviews of M142 HIMARS and M270 MLRS: the long-awaited dual rocket launcher in Ukraine

 For several weeks now, the names of the American M142 HIMARS and M270 MLRS volley fire systems have repeatedly appeared in statements by Ukrainian officials and representatives of partner countries ready to provide weapons to Ukraine, wrote mezha.media .

First, President Zelensky listed the M142 HIMARS on the list of heavy weapons needed for Ukraine in this new phase of the war, then Deputy Chief of Staff Victoria Nuland mentioned "MLRS, which is already supplied by the United States," and the MOU Intelligence Directorate reported that the Armed Forces were provided by the states. partner country." What kind of magic weapon is this that everyone has been waiting for?

The M142 HIMARS and M270 MLRS are universal MLRS launchers that can use a wide variety of Multi Launch Rocket System Family of Munitions missiles. These include unguided missiles with cluster munitions, mines or "smart bombs", as well as guided cluster munitions, short- and medium-range guided missiles. The pearl of this family is the MGM-140 ATACMS medium-range ballistic missile with a combat radius of 300 km, which can reach frontline airfields and racist depots.

Distinguishing the chassis and novelty of the M270 MLRS and M142 HIMARS. The M270 MLRS was designed in the late 1970s, entered service in 1983 and has a chassis traced from the M2 Bradley BMP. The M142 HIMARS was developed in the second half of the 1990s, and entered the division in 2002. In addition, HIMARS was soon developed as a highly mobile system, the acronym HIMARS stands for High Mobility Artillery Rocket System - a highly mobile artillery missile system. Therefore, the M142 HIMARS is built on the chassis of the M1140 army truck (Austrian Steyr 12M18 modification).

The M270 MLRS carries two universal units on 6 guided missiles / missiles of 227 mm caliber each (or one MGM-140 ATACMS with a diameter of 610 mm); The HIMARS M142 is just one such package. The missile is in an integrated transport and launch case, which is convenient to store, transport and reload. The M270 MLRS can launch 12 package missiles per minute, HIMARS takes half the time. The use of a wheeled chassis, rapid deployment and complex disassembly, digital fire control allow the M142 HIMARS to employ the beat-and-run tactics that the Armed Forces love so much. The M270, which has a crawler chassis, is a little less mobile.

The M142 HIMARS is a fairly new system, so it doesn't require modification, but the M270 MLRS has been upgraded several times. In 2005, the M270A1 received a new fire control system and new mechanical parts of the launcher, which allowed the MLRS to use guided munitions. However the M270C1 generally accepts the fire control system from HIMARS. M270D1 - another update and another in terms of fire control - this time for missiles with GPS guidance, updated computer, display, GPS antenna, remote control system. That is, even the "old" M270 is a very modern weapon.

Depending on the modification of the 227 mm missile, the M270 MLRS and M142 HIMARS systems can hit targets at a distance of 32-70 km, and with the GMLRS-ER long-range missiles even 150 km, it is a pity that these ammunition began to be produced only in 2022.

The MGM-140 ATACMS is a completely different matter, this missile reaches 300 km. The Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) modification is currently being piloted, even at 499 km (instead of 500 km, as this is a violation of the Treaty on the Elimination of Medium-Range and Short-Range Missiles). The ATACMS flies on a ballistic trajectory, rises to an altitude of 50 km, at a speed of 1 km / s (Mach 3), has inertial guidance and GPS. A great addition to our "U-Point", which allows you to direct Russian aircraft from airfields near the Ukrainian border.

It is not known for certain whether the M270 MLRS and M142 HIMARS have arrived in Ukraine, or whether this is just an element of a psychological operation, as the shooters still need to be trained to work with American equipment. But after yesterday's meeting at the Rammstein base, there is no doubt that Ukraine will eventually receive the American MLRS. And this is good.

Megan Fox has a blood drinking ritual with Machine Gun Kelly and thinks social media is 'sinister'

 Megan Fox would like to clear up what people think about her and fiancé Machine Gun Kelly drinking each other's blood.

"So, I guess to drink each other's blood might mislead people or people are imagining us with goblets and we're like 'Game of Thrones,' drinking each other's blood," 365 jours 2: Au lendemain streaming, 365 jours 2: Au lendemain streaming vf she told Glamour UK. "It's just a few drops, but yes, we do consume each other's blood on occasion for ritual purposes only."

Fox is on the cover of the April issue of the magazine and said she's into astrology, metaphysical practices, meditations, as well as new and full moon practices.

When she and Kelly do a blood ritual, she said, for her "it's a passage or it is used for a reason."

"And it is controlled where it's like, 'Let's shed a few drops of blood and each drink it,'" Fox said. "He's much more haphazard and hectic and chaotic, where he's willing to just cut his chest open with broken glass and be like, 'Take my soul.'"

The pair are friends with another engaged couple, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, but Fox said they don't hang out as much as people may believe.

"They're magnetic," she said about the pair. "So nobody's really interacting with them too much, because they're just stuck."

Plus, between the two couples there are quite a few children. Fox joked that doesn't leave much time for double dates.

Fox got emotional during the interview talking about her three sons and how she talked to them about gender identity given that her oldest, Noah, started wearing dresses when he was two years old, she said.

According to Fox, she said she "bought a bunch of books that sort of addressed these things and addressed a full spectrum of what this is. Some of the books are written by transgender children."

"Some of the books are just about how you can be a boy and wear a dress; you can express yourself through your clothing however you want. And that doesn't even have to have anything to do with your sexuality," she said. "So from the time they were very young, I've incorporated those things into their daily lives so that nobody feels like they are weird or strange or different."

Fox said she keeps her children off of social media, which she thinks is "sinister," though she acknowledged she has accounts herself that someone runs for her.

Ukraine may receive British Brimstone missiles in coming days

 In the coming days, Britain plans to hand over its "Brimstone" anti-ship missiles to Ukraine.

This was reported by the BBC , citing British Deputy Defense Secretary James Gippi, Ukrinform reported.

He spoke about the new military aid for the Armed Forces during a speech to the local parliament.

Last week, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Britain was investigating how to deliver the missiles to Ukraine. In particular, the possibility of installing it in a car is considered. According to Gippi, the experiment was successful and in the coming weeks the weapon will be available to the Armed Forces.

Keep in mind that Brimstone tracking missiles are usually deployed from aircraft. They are designed to defeat both sea and land targets. The range of the missiles of the first model reaches 20 km, and the second modification - up to 60 km.

The UK will deliver high-tech Brimstone missiles to Ukraine in the next few weeks, possibly before May 10. This was announced, speaking on 26 April in Parliament, the British Undersecretary of Defense, James Hippie .

On Monday, speaking in Parliament, Defense Secretary Ben Wallace noted that there is currently no talk of sending the Harpoon anti-ship missile to Ukraine, as the UK only has it in a ship version, or the Brimstone missile. However, according to Hippie, the delivery date has been moved forward.

“When the Minister of Defense made a statement in Parliament yesterday, he mentioned that by 2020 we agreed in principle to develop and sell [to Kyiv] the naval version of the Brimstone missile. Recently, Ukraine requested long-range ground attack missiles, and the government is looking into whether the stock of Brimstone [missiles] can be used for this purpose. But given the speed with which our specialists are working now and the effectiveness of the partnership with manufacturers, I am pleased to report that they have moved this timeline forward,” 365 jours 2 Streaming, 365 jours 2 Streaming VF, The Northman Streaming, The Northman Streaming VF said Hippie.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in response to a request for assistance from the leaders of the Donbass republic. After that, the US, European Union, UK and a number of other countries imposed massive sanctions against the Russian Federation and increased arms supplies to the Ukrainian authorities.

Ukraine will receive long-range Brimstone cruise missiles from Britain ahead of schedule, British Undersecretary of Defense James Hippie said April 26 in Parliament.

According to him, Kyiv could receive the missile before May 10.

"I would like to inform the House of Commons that we will be providing Brimstone to Ukraine in the next few weeks, maybe even during the parliamentary recess before the Queen's See Speech," Hippie said.

Recall that the speech from the throne is scheduled for May 10.

Earlier, British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said that neither the Harpoon anti-ship missile nor the Brimstone missile could be delivered to Ukraine at this time.

However, Hippie explained, the current condition is the possibility of expediting the delivery.

“When the Minister of Defense made a statement to Parliament yesterday, he mentioned that by 2020 we agreed in principle to develop and sell a naval version of the Brimstone missile. Recently, Ukraine requested long-range missiles to hit ground targets, and the government is studying whether Brimstone from stock can be used for this purpose ... But given the pace of work of our specialists and manufacturing companies, I report that they have brought this deadline getting closer,” said Hippie.

Britain handed over to Ukraine a Stormer infantry fighting vehicle with the MANPADS Starstreak launcher

 Britain handed over to Ukraine a small number of Stormer armored personnel carriers equipped with Starstreak anti-aircraft missile launchers to bolster the country's air defenses.

This was stated by Defense Secretary Ben Wallace in the House of Commons, writing "European Truth" with reference to the BBC.

Wallace noted that the car will offer enhanced "day and night short-range anti-aircraft capabilities."TWILIGHT Chapitre 4 Streaming, TWILIGHT Chapitre 4 Streaming VF, TWILIGHT Chapitre 5 Streaming, TWILIGHT Chapitre 5 Streaming VF

He said Starstreak MANPADS had been deployed and used in Ukraine for the past three weeks.

The minister added that, according to the UK, a quarter of the Russian troops sent to Ukraine are currently "incapable" and praised the Ukrainian resistance as "an inspiration to all of us."

The Stormer has an eight payload launcher on the roof and space inside to accommodate eight more missiles. This missile is capable of shooting down enemy aircraft and helicopters flying at low altitudes.

British media previously reported that the high-tech 13 tonne launcher was expected to be loaded on the C-17 transport plane and delivered to the battlefield within days.

Last week, Boris Johnson said that British instructors in Poland were helping Ukrainians learn Starstreak's MANPADS.

Britain has decided to hand over at least 120 armored vehicles to Ukraine. Of these, 80 are Mastiff, Husky and Wolfhound vehicles designed to transport personnel in combat zones.

Another 40 vehicles have been adapted for on-site reconnaissance and other purposes. These include, in particular, the Spartan vehicle designed to carry four fighters plus a team of three, the frontline "fast" Doctor Strange 2 Streaming, Doctor Strange 2 Streaming VF, Doctor Strange 2 Streaming Gratuit, Doctor Strange 2 Streaming Complet Samaritan, the Sultan's armored command vehicle, the Samson armored vehicle.

Germany to hand over Gepard anti-aircraft tanks to Ukraine

 The German federal government also finally agreed to allow the shipment of heavy weapons to Ukraine.

According to Ukrinform with reference to the Twitter account of the German Ministry of Defense, it is about the Gepard tank.

"Germany will hand over the Gepard anti-aircraft tank," the statement said.

This was announced by Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht during a meeting of the military departments of partner countries on aid to Ukraine, held at Ramstein Air Base in western Germany.

In addition, it is known that the Ukrainian army will study in Germany with the Panzerhaubitze 2000 system, which the Netherlands wants to provide to the Ukrainian army.

The German government has recently been the target of strong criticism from political forces, even in the ruling coalition, and public figures, part of society, for being hesitant to give Kyiv the heavy weapons it needs to fight Russian aggressors. Berlin is trying to avoid supply constraints, but is willing to hand over heavy weapons to other NATO countries if they return their Soviet-style equipment.

There has been talk for several days about a possible supply of the Gepard system. The KraussMaffei Wegmann factory announced back in February that they still had about 50 in their own arsenal, which could be handed over to the Armed Forces after minor repairs.

The Gepard tank is armed with two 35-mm guns and a radar. In addition to air attackers, they can also hit ground targets.

The decision to transfer the Marder armored vehicles to Ukraine will also be discussed in the coming days.

Germany intends to provide Ukraine with a self-propelled anti-aircraft unit "Cheetah". This was announced by German Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht on Tuesday, April 26, ahead of a meeting of defense ministers from nearly 40 countries, which took place that day at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany at the invitation of Pentagon Chief Lloyd Austin, Reuters reports. . According to Lambrecht, the decision regarding the "Cheetah" was made by the German government the day before, DW said.

Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin opened a meeting of foreign ministers at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany on Tuesday morning, April 26. According to the head of the German Defense Ministry, a "circular exchange" has been initiated with partners in Eastern Europe for Ukraine to immediately receive heavy weapons that do not require long-term training. "They gave the Soviet-made equipment to Ukraine, and we filled the gap," he was quoted as saying by AFP. In addition, Germany plans to make more efforts to train the Ukrainian military.

Earlier in the day, news agencies dpa and Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that the German government plans to supply Ukraine with Cheetah anti-aircraft guns from industrial stockpiles. According to these data, the manufacturer Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW) received the "green light" to be able to export a modernized "Cheetah" from the former Bundeswehr reserve. According to Reuters, the Cheetah can hit aerial targets with its two 35-millimeter weapons: airplanes, helicopters, drones or missiles at a range of up to six kilometers. Cheetahs have been produced since the early 1970s and have been exported to the Netherlands and Belgium, among others. Among NATO countries, the Cheetah is still used in Romania.

Germany has promised to deliver up to 50 self-propelled "Cheetah" anti-aircraft units based on the Leopard tank to Ukraine. However, as Bild knows, the country has very few bullets for its fast-fired weapons, writes Liga.net.

There are only 23,000 rounds of ammunition for the Cheetah's two main guns in the warehouses of Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, an anti-aircraft manufacturer.

Given that together they make about 1,100 shots per minute, the total ammunition available in Germany will only be enough for 20 minutes of basic weapon use.

The Ministry of Defense and Krauss-Maffei Wegmann have been searching for additional ammunition for Cheetahs around the world since Tuesday. They may be in Jordan, Romania, Brazil and Qatar, where these machines are operated.

In addition, according to BILD, technical training of anti-aircraft tanks and gunner training will take at least six weeks. Thus, their supply to Ukraine is expected no earlier than June.

The self-propelled anti-aircraft unit FlakPz Gepard is designed to cover ground forces, destroying aerial targets at an inclined distance from 100 m to 4 km and at an altitude of up to 3 km, flying at speeds up to 350-400 m / s, as well as ground targets ( surface) at a range of up to 4500 m. Based on a chassis similar to the Leopard tank chassis, but the hull has thinner armor. It is equipped with two 35-mm cannons with 550 rounds per minute, a 7.62-mm MG-3 machine gun and two radars. Ammunition - 310 unitary rounds, including 20 armor-piercing sub-caliber.

In February 2022, German arms company KraussMaffei Wegmann (KMW) announced that it had about 50 Cheetahs in its arsenal which could be moved to Ukraine after minor repairs.

An emotional moment was experienced at the premiere of The Voice (CHV), a stellar in which different people appeared before the jury in search of the dream of becoming singers.

One of them was Roberto Lobos, a 27-year-old man dedicated to carpentry, who shone with his voice with the song Precisely now, by the Spanish David de María. After the presentation, he said that he has been singing for a long time, but that the pandemic forced him to focus on the furniture store.

Hearing him sing, both Beto Cuevas, Gente de Zona and Cami Gallardo turned to have him on their team.

The one who did not turn her seat was the Mexican Yuri, however, after the participant chose her coach , the voice of "Maldita primavera" revealed the powerful emotion generated by the participant's story. "Oh, sorry, sorry, I got very emotional," she said through tears.

MEXICAN EMOTION

In that, her fellow members of the jury approached to hug her, and she launched:

"Do you know what's up?" When people come from below, when he's a carpenter...” She tried to finish the sentence, but broke off.

Meanwhile, the public encouraged her with: “Yuri!, Yuri!, “Yuri”.

"They always say they can't," he said of competitors on these kinds of shows. "And, for me, my example is Jesus, because he was a carpenter and he never stopped being King, and he was so important for humanity."

“Then seeing the boy touched me a lot, because people always think 'carpenter' and (assume) 'you can't' or 'you shouldn't'”. However, "it's not like that," she declared. "That's why he feels like this" as if he were less when he said that "I'm a carpenter". And she stressed: “No! It's just another profession."

Anyway, "he did it," she celebrated, and left a message for her colleague Cami, who will continue polishing the competitor: "You have to work on it, make him feel proud of who he is," he said. "He's an artist, but he doesn't believe it."

"We all have a value," he concluded, "and that's why it touched my heart, because my example is Jesus, I'm a fan of Jesus."
