  • Bloodeh brilliant!

  • I miss working on Steel Rain but I sure dont miss Fort Sill OK except maybe Night Trips

  • those are fuckin wicked man...

  • i <3 MARS 5*

  • nettes video

  • Hopefully they told you not to breathe that rocket smoke!

  • I hated Fort Sill!

  • This is not fort sill.

  • I know, but all Army and Marine artillery takes place at Fort Sill. This reminds me of watching MLRS at the fort.

  • 07?

    Are you still doing this today?

  • I am now Ex-Military, I didn't resign. After 9 Years i feel like It's time to concentrate on my business.

  • Good for you bro. Thanks for serving. Did you ever have to use this in combat?

  • shit u see blast on rocket on launch i guess hats why they put blast windows on front XD

  • srsly it's cool and scary

  • Wasnt the M270 MRLS first went in production in america?

  • HOOAH!!! Fuck the commies bring them on, fucking russians!!

  • hahaha i'm pretty sure they have them too

  • I love this Rocketlaunchsystem!!

    Thanks for the Video,5*!

    Greetings from Germany!

  • this MLRS testing was conduct by Royal Malaysian Army is it??..

  • No this was at a testing range in the United States.

  • What's the song name?

  • painted black

  • er.. paint it black :)

  • Why does the windshield have shutters that close on firing(Not shown in this video)

  • Because of the heat of launched rockets.

  • steel rain!

  • Not bad. Anyway, this system is much weaker than Russian "Smerch", which still has no analogs.

  • still amazing!

  • thats friggen awesome i want one

  • quite a good video, I really enjoyed the extra information. Good job.

  • The Astros II are better

  • I just got chills

  • 1/182 FA MLRS UNIT HOOAHHH .....good video

  • 13 M lead the way!!! HOOAHHH!!!!!!

  • Well, our new German MLRS with the new EFCS and ELDS will work much better. But I like your Video from our Weaponsystem.

    I`m the mechanic for the LDS and worked in the the unforgotten 1. Rak Art Btl 150 in WESEL.

    Yours Peter

  • Yes, you're right! It's the launcher where you can keep your beer pretty cold and yourself always in a sunny position!;-) But i've never seen a "tank" before with so many sharp edges!!! Tankdriver 2. / 52. RK Batterie. Best regrads Simon

  • Something that pretends to be MRLS. A bad attempt.

  • This video is so AWESOME nothing like rocket propelled artillery

  • i just enlisted as an MLRS Fire Support Specialist.... its an amazing piece of equipment.

  • I got advice for you, if you still can, change your MOS NOW!!! 13P is a shitty job, you sit in your box of a M1068 FDC track and monitor the radio all day and night in the field, when you are not doing that you are putting up or tearing down BIG camo nets, which is a royal pain in the ass, when not doing that you are on bullshit guard duty, and back in the motorpool you'll be pushing a broom, doing maintenance, or laying out your equipment for the 100th time, I'm warning ya, change your MOS!

  • Well I hate to tell you that's just the Army, I'm not a 13 series and the bullshit still doesn't stop. I'm a 25B and with the BCT bullshit, my Army experience has been fucked up, I don't have admin rights to servers or computers. The Army trained me to do all that good stuff, and Congress gave my job to contractors. You're best bet is to get an education and get a real job.

  • would a 13p be close enough to watch them fly?

  • yep. I was a 13p and watched many live fires in desert storm

  • ohaaaaaaaaa

  • nice.. im also using MLRS, In the Israeli army ^^ and there are few things wich are classified, like a truck with a huge radar with extremly new tech' that costs like F-16.

  • OLFIFEINI, stolz Deutscher zu sein was?^^ (proud of beeing german yeah?^^)

    yeah really nice vid, Praetorian Guard ... wanna do this too if i joined the army^^

  • and remember! Its made in germany!

  • American design, but different parts are produced in different country's. Final assembly in Germany by Diehl BGT Defence.

  • Maybe for Germany, but all US MLRS launchers are produced in the United States.

  • let them be patriot^^

    its american, but the sold some to germany

  • 13P here I come!!!!! frikken A mann!!

  • 13 P is fire dircection... you sit in an entirely different vehicle. If you want to shoot you need to be a 13M

  • it fires 12 rockets, not missles. Rockets are balistic, like a bullet, once fired you can't control it's flight path. The rockets don't go 180 miles, they go about 45 kilometers. There is no guidence system on the rockets. MLRS can also fire ATACMS - Army Tactical Missle System. It can fire two of these, unclassified out to 150 kilometers, and these missles are guided. Who ever put the words to this video needs to crack open their FMs/TMs. Good footage. Did this in Desert Storm.

  • Nothing like an MLRS and The Stones

  • to skopia!!!xaxa

  • It can fire only ballistic missiles over 180 miles. And it can fire only one. The system is capable of firing guided and unguided projectiles to a distance of up to 42 km (26.1 miles) БМ-30 (9К58) "Смерч" - Is much more better

  • MRLS is my favrote rocket system why dont they fire the rockets faster like every second they launch a rocket for maxium damage and it wont give the enemy time to recover and youll only need one MRLS launcher rather than lots because if you have lots you represent a big easy target bacause all the enemy has to do is find you then drop bombs or launch missiles say SCUDs.

  • yeaaaa.....how about you don't speak.......people might hear what you say........btw this is training not command and conquer

  • any terrorist that gets caught in that knows they got taken down expensively and with some style

  • Comment removed

  • Their alright but my fav military unit ever is a F 35!

  • What exactly is M77? did you mean an M67 grenade?

  • you forgot to mention that it costs 4million for each 1

  • LOL I thought that people would just come to that conclusion on their own. =P

  • I'm not telling you off but shouldnt you not be sharing this infomation because what if the russians or terrorits watch this not that they will but you never know they could adopt the design or make it better and use it on you but you never know i might be wrong im just wondering lol.

  • Well the russians were the first ones to use a missile system like this (ww2)... so i am sure they have their own...

  • I really doubt any military is depending on Youtube for information. They have much more effective intelligence trust me. BTW everything he has said is publicly available information, no classified stuff.

  • Ok i get it... your only 14... I thought you might have been retarded.

  • To gaktkr,

    This information is publicly available on the internet. None of it is classified.

  • MLRS is one of my fav military vehicles.

  • STEEL RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOOAH!

  • yea metal storm have far more insane, we have systems that match that of russia

  • thats nuts... but a metal storm system is even more insane..... 1 million round a minute, and designed in Australia... lmao

  • Comment removed

  • HOOAH

  • Now I know why it is called "Steel Rain".

  • I was a 13M in the Army, that MOS sucks.

  • Great video, thanks for sharing it !

  • yes, would like to see pre-and post strike damage too! :-)

  • how far can the mlrs drive on a single tank of gas?

  • you mean diesel?

  • Nice-more-more :)

  • holy shit

  • I was in a gemany in service by mlrs (MARS= Mittleres Artilleristisches Raketen System) on the Radar Sytem Ares ( Artilleristisches Raketen Erfassunssystem). The mlrs is a Powerfull and deadly Weapon stay away

  • great song at the end-Its the end of the world as we know it:L:L:L:L

  • That was awesome

  • iʻd like to see it land and how it does damage.... AWESOME

  • The MLRS will take away your gusto.

  • The song is Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones

  • How's called that song in the background? I know it's pretty famous, but I simply forgot.

  • Actually I've found this truck could shot only up to 40 (normally) or 70 (extended) km.

  • HELL YEAH!!!

  • lol, Israel still lost the lebanon war. What waste of American tax payer money

  • They didn't lose shit mate. They're kicking the holy hell out of Hamas and hezzbollah as i type. Your statement holds no merit.

  • vis-vis soldier to soldeir Israelis don't stand a chance. What Israelis resort to is wild fire on civilians and then they claim victory. I remember cnn coverage of Olmerts speech in the knesset dirng hizbo war.Some Members were dragged out screaming why they were losing the war and a few were in tears. It was unbeleivable I thought I would never live to see that day. Israel defeated.

  • ur wrong. they're still fighting.

  • Israel didn't lose the Lebanon war, Lebanon surrendered but the Hezabollah went ahead and cheered for losing reason.

    It is ironic that a losing armies can cheer inspite of losing. It is comedy if you experiences it.

  • I've seen a live fire in person of this baby..It's something that shakes your very core when the blast of the launch reaches you...The rocket is OUT OF SIGHT before you ever hear it too. it's called Steel Rain for a reason, and it will be used a long time in conventional war.

  • egv you haven't supported your argument with facts and examples.

  • what a fight machine

  • melhor video do youtube queria uma maquina dessa...kkkkk eu ia destruir muita coisa...kkk

  • I hate to admit this but America this hunk of junk is obsolete! so come on and build something more better and faster reflex like the russians because i think they have better weapons than we do and it's frightening! we're has been at 1 time and were not anymore...we keep showin the same old weapons on yt when others keep showin newer weapons from other countries...namely russia!...sooo whats up America Military show somethin NEW OK!

  • You are retarded. I can see you haven't done your research and probably never will based on your ability to type before you think.

  • oops my comment was meant for egv102

  • What is the reload time?

  • In my 12 Months of being in German Bundeswehr i hat that privileg to fire up more than 6 of the Big Rockets. And the 110mm "Spargel" Rockets more than 30 of them. That was fun but not the cleaning of the equipment. We needet more than 2 Days to clean up the MLRS Tank. But it was Fun in the manoeuver.

  • I dont ever want to be your enemy!

  • yee that viecal is mega fast

  • Too much smoke for a modern artillery. Try the automated Swedish Archer instead.

  • These are used for long range fire....out of range of most counter-battery fire. Being smokey wouldn't be such a bad thing, because these things shoot a very long way. Very effective system...the Iraqis called it "Steel Rain".

  • Are these still in use?

  • wtf

  • wow... cool system. im in artillery too but we use m109.

  • Ahh yes the sounds of vietnam, im glad denmark youse them to. good vid

  • Nice equimpment. ;-) My era of music too, love it.

  • paint it black

  • what is the music

  • NAM thats what

  • i just got my chatcam working!!! msg me on msn me jane22fall D

  • my brother steve builds operates and repairs these things they are awesome

  • Best rocket artillery ever.

    Iraq knows what happens when they hit. I wish they didn't have to...we screwed up.

  • cool MRLS

  • Paint it black by Rolling Stones.

  • Whats the name of that song? :)

  • talk about a shitty MOS.....Broke Dick Launchers...but hey, I drank a lot of beer...

  • dont forget the hated ammo DAWGS...Does All the Work and Gets SHit.....3/27, 6/29 and 2/18....91 thru 96.....suck it easy...

  • Can't wait to leave Sunny, Sandy Iraq and get home to shoot those again!! BOOM-ARTILLERY!!!

  • huhu.....just like WW2 Katysha....:D

  • Does the aim need to be adjusted after each launch?

  • It adjusts its aim automatically only if it has a different point to shoot at. If it is to shoot at the same point, it stays on target. Tolerance area is +- 3 feet from target.

  • So you're saying the vehicle is so stable that it doesn't move when firing the rockets in quick succession?

  • remember that those missiles dosnt transfer any recoil too the vehicle...they wont move

  • Forget to pump up the SLO and you'll see how much those vehicles move!!

  • you have never fired any rockets ? right ?

  • it does not fire rockets...they are called missiles. you have never fired any missiles? right? because i have, and they are almost recoil free....u dont know what u are talkin about jeffreyo, at least it seems like u dont

  • i dont think so...dont know what army you are in...we called them rocket (atacms was a missle) and yes its almost recoil free but there is the SLO...remember ??....i've fired plenty of rocket...C-3/27 fort bragg; A and B 6/29 germany; B-13 fort sill (1991 thru 1996)...and you ?

  • u are right with this one.....these MLRSs are firing the standard M-26 rockets...not missiles. Although it can fire missles, the ones in the video are loaded with rockets

  • That's not White Sands, NM.  They're shooting M28A1 Reduced Ranged Practice Rockets (RRPRs pronounced "rippers). Basically a telephone pole with fins.

  • oh...my mistake.

    they are. thank u for correcting me

  • noosrvla you fuckhead the MLRS system can fire Rockets and Missiles. The missiles are called ATACMS Army Tactical Missile. It fires 12 regular surface to surface rockets in two pods or 2 atacms one in each pod. Was in B-3/27th MLRS Fort Bragg from 96 to 98! Woo hoo!!! Now they have HIMARS look that up noob!

  • thank you sotomizer, yes noosrvia did fuck-up...i dont think he has ever been in the service, an "wanna-be"... Is the battalion, when you got out, still over off Gruber Lane.....

  • Ardennes Road. is where the Battalion is. The Motor Pool is off Yadkin on YOrk Victory Lane.

  • hahaha..Yadkin road...i remember it well..we(the Unit) would do a PT run call the Yadattack....full PT run in combat boot and ruck sack( some times weapons).....memories...it followed Yadkin Road, i think it was about and 8 mile run...lol

  • Hey whats up dude I was in B 3/27 MLRS from 01 to 06 then reclassed. I am back in the brigade as a freakin truck driver. I deployed with The Steel Rain Battalion to Iraq in 03. Was your old 1SG. 1SG Huntley?

  • Nope. They will just barely move, and you can barely feel it inside the cabin.

  • Wow rely nice video, can you please tell me name of the music? 5/5

  • @ Lovro527

    Rolling stones - Paint it black.

  • how much geld do you want for a MLRS vehicle??

    I have enemies!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • How much geld you got.  LOL

  • I even don't talk about cost of it =)))))

  • Yes only twelve, and russian Smerch have only twelve too.

    Very very pretty and cool thing.

    But I think it cannot bring too heavy warhead 300 miles away(too long distance) like Smerch do on 100km.

    And it's interesting about accuracy of rockets. And how good it fights on mountain territory with it's angle of rocket flying.

    Seems that it is too slow to leave a battle-field as it have a track-base.

    My opinion: it is fartful machine. But make a good impression.

  • Only twelve rockets?

    Yeah. i'm going with the russian ones.

  • no it´s an german amercian project the version on wheels is called LARS light artillery rocket system...mars is middle artillery rocket system..

  • each one of these is indeed american the german one is similar but is on wheels

  • When it launches its very quit never expected that.

  • nice our german rocketlauncher or ? ^^

  • schön unser deutscher raketenwerfer wa ^^

  • I just saw the MLRS a few weekends ago at Ft. Knox in Kentucky. It was amazing! My husband is a journalist with the National Guard so I get to tag along sometimes and see really cool stuff :)

  • Nice man i respect you in what you do i'm joining up this year to do this job my name will be Private B.Jones remember it as i hope to see you there.

  • mine is master chief

  • nicely done but just one thing i would like to no how much is it you get payed when you first start?

  • If you are an enemy of the U.S.A. or any of its allies, that shit is going to fuck you up!

  • 13m is my mos also. i love that stuff

  • 1-142FA is Arkansas National Guard.

  • Go Diamond Dildos!!!!!

  • ningun armamento en ningun momento será bacan

    no weapons at any time wll be cool.

    always causes pain and suffering

  • No pain and suffering with MLRS! Just quick, hard, immediate death!!! I'd say, pretty humane!

  • what country is that from?

  • The MLRS is American.

  • These tanks are the True Bad Boys of Field Artillery. Awesome video!

  • :o!!!

  • Awsome video....my husband works on MLRS....that is one bitchin machine!

  • Bacanisimo

  • crazy thing ;D i dont want to be where the missiles touch the ground :O

  • The Rolling Stones and the word "crappy" can never be in the same sentence.

  • Man that kicks up a lot of smoke and dust.

  • There is no hope. this world is over with, those that are not in Christ, there is no hope for you.
