Mobility Equals Survivability: Keeping Smerch and Uragan Launchers Rolling

For heavy MLRS platforms like the BM-30 Smerch and BM-27 Uragan, mobility isn’t just convenience—it’s survivability. These launchers must reposition quickly after firing to avoid counter-battery response. But heavy payload, harsh routes, and recoil dynamics contribute to a critical failure mode: crushed or destroyed tires that immobilize the platform. The operational problem isn’t only that […]
