M142 HIMARS History:
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a light multiple rocket launcher developed for the United States Army in the late 1990s. It is mounted on a standard U.S. Army Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) M1140 truck frame and carries one pod with either six Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) rockets or one Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile. The launcher can be transported by various aircraft.
Development of the HIMARS began in 1982 with the 9th Infantry Division, but gained momentum during the Gulf War when the need for a lightweight MLRS was highlighted. HIMARS has since been used in conflicts such as the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, where the U.S. supplied Ukraine with HIMARS systems to counter Russian forces.
The HIMARS can fire MLRS rockets with a maximum range of up to 90 km. There are plans for future operators like Australia, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Morocco, Taiwan, and potentially Hungary and the Netherlands. The Autonomous Multi-domain Launcher (AML) is an unmanned variant of the HIMARS, equipped with a remote-controlled launcher and fire-control system.
Overall, the HIMARS is a versatile and effective artillery system that provides long-range precision strike capabilities for military forces around the world.

I have built a number of Cobi sets, but this set is flawed. The sides of the launcher turret do not connect to the base of the launcher turret so the whole turret falls apart. Really disappointed because it’s has the potential to be a great piece
