Alan8325 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 It's a nice system. It makes more sense that the rockets hit the intended target that happened to be occupied by civilians than veered off course by 300 meters. Another article I read about the Marjah offensive mentions a statement by one the residents that a Taliban machine gunner took up a position on a house occupied by several children. It sounds like with all the unprecedented strict ROE in effect that the U.S. Army already knew that the Taliban would fight this way and it actually surprises me that they would use the HIMARS at all. It would be nice to see it added to CMSF as an artillery asset though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
