It's just range. America would have similar trouble engaging BM-30s and BM-27s without airborne GMTI and relying solely on WLRs.




The U.S. has ~770 MLRS/HIMARS. Poland has a big army, almost as big as the U.S. or ROK. It makes sense they'd have a lot of rocket launchers, even if it's close to merely half as many as the U.S.




Rocket length, at least if they're buying PULS. PULS supports a 5 meter rocket length, minimum.


Israel made PULS to have MLRS-comparable reloading speed, but with extreme long range rockets like EXTRA, which is nearly two-thirds a meter longer than M26/GMLRS, or Predator Hawk which is a meter longer than ATACMS. MLRS pods are limited to ~4 meter long all up rounds. I think the Chunmoo rockets are the same length, but a wider diameter.
