Photos with these jet systems in Ukraine have recently appeared on the net. They are an upgraded version of the Soviet Grad MLRS, which are equipped with a new ballistic computer and built on the unique Tatra chassis, which allows them to pass through difficult terrain.
#Ukraine: The first photo of the Czech BM-21 MT multi-year box manufacturer was released from the Caliber Horde and received by the Ukrainian army throughout the year.

Tatra T815−7T3R2T has a 4×4 wheel arrangement. The installation has a new fire control system and a ballistic calculator.
BM-21MT systems are manufactured by the Czech company Excalibur Army.
The vehicles are equipped with a fire control system – a computer system, an inertial navigation system and communications – that increase productivity in performing individual tasks and coordinating the actions of a number of artillery units.
The BM-21MT has compartments for the inventory of spare parts, tools and accessories.
This charge is for the replacement of defective parts, minor repairs by the crew, and maintenance of the launcher.
The manufacturer claims that 40 missiles from the launcher are capable of hitting targets at a distance of 40 km, but this also depends on the ammunition.
The BM-21 MT uses an armored cockpit and fire control automation system. The total weight is 16.3 tons.
The machine, equipped with a Tatra V8 engine with a power of 270 kW, is capable of speeds up to 90 km/h.
