i doubt it would work. phalanx has got a pretty short range and the rocket would have disperse its' sub-munition b4 it even enters the phalanx firing range.
@RockyHooligan - I would take a platoon of ARNG or reservists over active duty soldiers any day. ARNG and reservists have so many trades and know how to do so much more then the active duty soldiers that are babysat by the military.
@Mr4433 - so you would take the group of people who only train for war 1 weekend a month. 2 weeks a year in the field, plus the "train up" to deployment (about a month) over the group of people who train for war nearly everyday, who live in an environment that breeds warriors, and who are much more mentally and physically ready for war because of their consistent training?
@adguy10 - Ya I would. i have spent enough time around active duty soldiers, holding their hands through shit that is the daily life of an NG or reservist. By "breeds warriors", are you really talking about active duty? Do you really think that active duty breeds warriors anymore then men and women working a normal job, seeing their wives/husbands and children knowing that they have to leave them behind because some other group of people has threatened their way of life?
Glad to see you commented on its failure before I did, what would have been said by our government of it was our soldiers it killed. I have been to Afghanistan and now I doubt I would feel safe from this having my back.
I wish Israel will get this HIMARS it is so cool. Also I'd like it to be in the reserve force first because I'm in one: "First Battalion" MLRS Israel.

I always wondered why the pod is 3x2 tubes, not 4x2. 4x2 would be capable of holding TWO atacms... ;)

@vcz11 Because it would probably lose its mobility, which is it's main characteristic

Many Afghan people did NOT support the Taliban government of pre-2001.

its quite unfair greece and turkey get atacms and germany not!
its a shame we built the best mbt we will keep 395 leopard!!!
hopefullythe next generation of tanks will be very good and we will have much of them
hopefully we get some awacs and some globemaster because a400m is just for lighter vehicles
