The Russian Defense Ministry recently shared a video showing Russian servicemen manning 220mm Uragan MLRS. The clip depicts Russian troops quickly loading ammunition into the tubes using the 9T452 Support Reloading Vehicle. When the loading is completed, crewmen assume firing positions and unleash hell on Ukrainian militants in seconds. After that, they quickly leave the site in a few minutes to evade possible counter-battery fire or drone attacks.The 9K57 Uragan is a Russian MLRS that entered service in the early 1980s. It was designed to replace the BM-21 Grad system and provide greater firepower and mobility to the Soviet Army.The system consists of a tracked or wheeled vehicle that carries 16 launch tubes capable of firing 220mm rockets up to a range of 35 kilometers. The rockets can be fitted with various types of warheads, including high-explosive fragmentation, incendiary, and thermobaric warheads. The system also includes a fire control computer and navigation system to accurately target enemy positions.Overall, the 9K57 Uragan MRLS is a potent weapon system that has proven effective in a variety of conflicts. The system has been praised for its high accuracy and ability to quickly saturate an area with rocket fire, making it effective against enemy troop concentrations, artillery positions, and fortifications. Russia also uses a modified 9K512 Uragan-1M system, capable of firing high-precision ammunition at distances of up to 90 kilometers, outranging its American counterpart, the M142 HIMARS.
