Delivery of the first multi-guided M142 HIMARS launchers for Australia marks the start of building fresh capabilities in her army to combat land targets at a distance of 80-500 km (in the case of PrSM besides water facilities in the future). They are sourced under the LAND 8113 program worth $1.6 billion. HIMARS bought in 2 tranches of 20 and 22 copies respectively will be delivered to the equipment of the 10th Fire Support Brigade.
