SR5 220 mm or 122 mm multiple launcher rocket system Norinco - China

As a short-medium range neutralization weapon, the SR5 multiple launcher rocket system (MLRS) is a universal launching platform adopting such technologies as canister launching, automatic loading and common-frame rocket launching.

Featuring intensive and accurate firepower, high level of automation, rapid reaction and excellent maneuverability, the weapon can relize common-frame launching of 122 mm and 220 mm guided/unguided rockets to achieve a highly efficient combination of surface suppression and precision strikes.
The SR5 MLRS is used to launch guided/unguided rockets and tactical missiles. Capable of destroying ground enemy targets within a distance of 70 km, it is usually used by artillery groups for follow-up suppression and fire support.
It can not only suppress esposed surface targets or group targets, but can also accurately destroy important or strategic point targets within the battle zone.
