MLRS is self-loaded with two rocket pods, each containing six rockets. Loading is power assisted and a single round 'fire for effect' of 12 rockets delivers 7,728 bomblets or 336 anti-tank mines. Operated from hides, usually as a battery of nine launchers, MLRS avoids counter attack by 'shooting and scooting' - moving fast and frequently between fire-missions. </p> <ul> <li>Organization: Army</li> <li>Object Name: e076d152</li> <li>Category: MOD</li> <li>Supplemental Categories: Equipment, Weapons, Missiles, GMLRS, Operations, Theatres, Afghanistan</li> <li>Keywords: Afghanistan, Camp Bastion, MLRS, Multiple Launch Rocket System, M270, Weaponry, Army, Operation, Op, Campaign, Herrick, Helmand, Equipment, Weapon, Missile, Multi Launch Rocket System</li> <li>Country: Afghanistan</li> </ul>
