Publisher's Description of COBI M142 HIMARS Multiple Rocket Launcher - 605 pieces (Armed Forces)

High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a high mobility artillery rocket system used by the United States Armed Forces, Poland and the Ukraine. HIMARS is carried on a light military truck, which allows for quick transport and access to hard-to-reach areas in combat conditions. The system can fire various types of rocket artillery shells, including high-explosive, anti-tank and precision rockets with high effectiveness and range. The HIMARS system has gained particular fame due to the extremely high effectiveness with which the Ukrainians use it during the ongoing war. The licensed block model in 1:35 scale complements the collection of contemporary military vehicles and aircraft issued under the Armed Forces banner. The set includes an artillery figure and printed bricks enabling the construction of a vehicle with the markings chosen by the builder (Poland, USA or Ukraine).
