The Future Battlefield's Key Enabler


Lockheed Martin HIMARS, a strategic capability, improves homeland and important asset defense while reducing overall mission costs. 2005 was a year of profound change in the world. 

The High Mobility Artillery Rocket System from Lockheed Martin (HIMARS) entered service that year. It revolutionized the way warfighters engage with the battlefield by providing unmatched mobility on the field.

Investment in Long-Range Precision Fires is essential if you want to maintain an edge on the battlefield of tomorrow. HIMARS is the keystone. HIMARS is technologically advanced, cost-effective, and long-lasting. It can be interoperable with precision munitions ranging from 15 to 499+ kilometers. This includes all MLRS Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS munitions): GMLRS, Extended-Range GMLRS (ER GMLRS), GMLRS, and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), as well as the Army Tactical Missile System ATACMS.

HIMARS can fire the same munitions as MLRS Launchers, but with one key difference - a wheelsed chassis rather than tracks. This design allows soldiers, Marines, and allies to quickly position, engage, and relocate after firing. Future battlefields are unpredictable. This makes adaptability even more important. Sometimes, the fight must be brought to an unreachable location. HIMARS excels in this area because of its lightweight, making it very transportable. You can even deploy it from a C-130 or larger aircraft. This allows you to quickly and decisively act in difficult-to-reach and remote locations. The U.S. has multiple global partners who operate HIMARS launchers and MLRS launchers, so it can combine artillery firepower with key positions in the world.

America's armed forces are currently working together to adopt Joint all domain operations (JADO), - a concept that interconnects multiple assets across the land, air, and sea to create a stronger force.

It was successfully tested during recent joint military exercises, including Valiant Shield (New Mexico) and Northern Edge (New Mexico). It will also be a part of the U.S. Army’s Project Convergence when the PrSM is launched in a side-by-side demonstration at White Sands Missile Range(WSMR), New Mexico.

HIMARS is known for its outstanding combat reliability, having logged more than a 1.9million hours of operation. HIMARS has more than 200 years of combined operating time, making it a cost-effective solution for domestic and international customers.
