[[File:Himars Andøya, May 10, 2023.webm|miniatyr|[[United States Marine Corps|US Marines]] gjennomfører skarpskyting med HIMARS  på [[Andøya Space|Andøya rakettskytefelt]] i november 2022.]]

'''High Mobility Artillery Rocket System''' ('''HIMARS''') er et [[USA|amerikansk]] [[rakettartilleri]]system på hjul, utviklet av [[Lockheed Martin]]. Systemet ble utviklet på slutten av 1990-årene for [[US Army]] og kan skyte samme artilleriraketter som det beltebaserte [[M270 MLRS]], men er lettere og mer mobilt og kan transporteres i transportfly.

HIMARS bærer én ammunisjonskapsel med enten seks Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System raketter eller et ATACMS-missil. Systemet er basert på den amerikanske hærens fem-tonns FMTV-lastebil og kan avfyre alle typer raketter i Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS)-familien. Ammunisjonskapslene til HIMARS er utskiftbare med de som brukes i M270 MLRS, men HIMARS har kun én kapsel, i motsetning til M270, som har to..

== Utvikling ==
Behovet for HIMARS oppsto i 1982 da den 9. motoriserte infanteridivisjonen ønsket et lett rakettartillerisystem for motild, men fikk liten støtte da fokuset var på tyngre styrker.<ref name=":02">{{Cite book|last=Dastrup|first=Boyd L.|title=Operation Desert Storm and Beyond: Modernizing the Field Artillery in the 1990s|publisher=Command Historian's Office, United States Field Artillery Center and School|year=2005|location=Fort Sill, Oklahoma|page=48}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last=Dastrup|first=Boyd L.|title=Modernizing the King of Battle: 1973-1991|publisher=Office of the Command Historian, United States Field Artillery Center and School|year=2003|location=Washington, D.C.|page=48}}</ref> Etter [[den kalde krigen]] ble det klart at M270 MLRS var for tungt for rask deployering,<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Dastrup|first=Boyd L.|title=Operation Desert Storm and Beyond: Modernizing the Field Artillery in the 1990s|publisher=Command Historian's Office, United States Field Artillery Center and School|year=2005|location=Fort Sill, Oklahoma|page=48}}</ref> og [[Gulfkrigen]] understreket behovet for et lettere system.

== Design ==
HIMARS ligner på M270 MLRS, men er hjulgående i stedet for beltegående. Mens M270 kan bære to rakettkapsler, bærer HIMARS kun én. HIMARS-vinduene er laget av [[safir]] laminert med glass og [[polykarbonat]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=5. november 2013|title=Saint-Gobain delivers sapphire-engineered transparent armor|url=https://www.upi.com/Business_News/Security-Industry/2013/11/05/Saint-Gobain-delivers-sapphire-engineered-transparent-armor/UPI-26791383684004/?spt=mps&or=1|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140619032111/http://www.upi.com/Business_News/Security-Industry/2013/11/05/Saint-Gobain-delivers-sapphire-engineered-transparent-armor/UPI-26791383684004/?spt=mps&or=1|archive-date=19. juni 2014|website=upi.com}}</ref> Systemet har også blitt testet som en enhetlig utskytningsplattform for både artilleriraketter og [[Luftvernmissil|luftvernmissiler]] som SLAMRAAM.<ref>{{cite web|title=Lockheed Martin's HIMARS Launcher Successfully Fires Air Defense Missile|url=https://news.lockheedmartin.com/2009-03-25-Lockheed-Martins-HIMARS-Launcher-Successfully-Fires-Air-Defense-Missile|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231003005132/https://news.lockheedmartin.com/2009-03-25-Lockheed-Martins-HIMARS-Launcher-Successfully-Fires-Air-Defense-Missile|archive-date=3. oktober 2023|access-date=1. mai 2022|website=Lockheed Martin}}</ref>
