He ask for a MRLS (there isn't one in the russian inventory.
You gave him the like to a: MLRS not MRLS and I'll still bet its the one he is looking for. HAHA

The MLRS and its sister HIMARS are us built ungided rocket launchers. MLRS can launch up to 12 rockets on the same time while HIMARS can launc up to 6. Each launch box contains 6 rockets. Each rocket contains about 644 bomblets (about the size of a handgranade) which could be launched for a distance of about 40 km.When near the target the rockets core warhead will expload and this will unleash its bombleats who will detonate over the target (or land and act as mines). The system was put to good use in the first gulf war where the iragis called it "steel rain" or "black rain" and the users "grid exterminator" due to its capability to destroy a sqare km of a target area. Its the best unguided rocket artillery in use today. hope it helps! Johan.

It is not a weapon, but a type of weapon. It consists of a number of tubes (rocket launchers) mounted on a vehicle which fires a salvo of rockets to cause destruction over a large area.

It's what it says it is. A rocket launcher. It's a tracked, crew served weapon used as long range arty. For details http://www.redstone.army.mil/history/systems/MLRS.html

Multple
Rocket
Launcher
Sytstem.
It is a U.S designed system, it fires (I believe 60) rockets at a target. The missles usually carry hundreds of grenade sized bomblets which do damage to a wide area.

I talked the less than the impression of alcohol out of my homestead (rapid questioning vs. boring recommendations) then went to a pal and borrowed a shotgun until i ought to purchase myself one. Edit: He sliced the demonstrate screen on a returned window and crawled in...warm summer no A/C
