It’s obvious why the Russians would prioritize their hunt for the Ukrainians’ HIMARS. Three times in the span of just a week last month, HIMARS targeted Russian troops lining up for inspection within range of the launchers’ six 57-mile M30/31 rockets, each of which scatters 182,000 tungsten balls—like giant shotgun shells.

Losing one HIMARS isn’t a killing blow for the Ukrainian army. The United States gave Ukraine 39 HIMARS. The United Kingdom, Germany, Italy and France also donated 25 M270s, which in essence are tracked HIMARS with twice the rocket-capacity. All that is to say, the Ukrainians still have 98 percent of their HIMARS and M270s.
