Hi guys! Welcome back to my new MOC, this time I built the M270D1 MLRS. Enjoy!

The M270 MLRS weapons system is collectively known as the M270 MLRS Self-Propelled Loader/Launcher (SPLL). The system can fire rockets or MGM-140 ATACMS missiles, which are contained in interchangeable pods. Each pod contains six standard rockets or one guided ATACMS missile; the two types cannot be mixed. The LLM can hold two pods at a time, which are hand-loaded using an integrated winch system. All twelve rockets or two ATACMS missiles can be fired in under a minute. One launcher firing twelve rockets can completely blanket one square kilometer with submunitions.
M270D1 includes a new fire control system that allows for firing GPS-guided rockets, such as GMLRS and ATACMS. The update package consists of a new computer, locating device, GPS antenna, launch control unit, displays and remote control device.

Is this similar to a HIMAR? The cab looks similar, but a lot of those trucks are. Looks amazing, the missiles are fantastic.

Superb work on recreating this rocket launching system. Your attention to details like the cab doors and the stops to keep the rocket launcher elevated really make it shine. I probably wouldn't want to be that close to the launcher when rockets are firing, but soldiers aren't always known for being smart.

HIMARS is a parallel vehicle, wich dispose of only 6 rocket, but it's on wheels. M270 is a heavy tracked version of HIMARS. Both vehicle launch the same type of missiles.

Thank you very much! Always kind I only wanted to add those soldiers to make the scene more alive, otherwise I knew the soldiers are inside the vehicle and away from it when it fires.
