The LAROM can operate with the standard 122 mm rockets, as well as with the more advanced 160 mm rocket, with a strike range between 20 and 45 km. The LAROM standard launch pod containers hold 13 LAR Mk IV rockets or 20 GRAD rockets, with two pods on a launcher. Most likely it was influenced by the BM-21 Grad 122 mm multiple rocket launcher (MRL) system which entered service with the Soviet Army in 1963 also utilizing a six-by-six truck chassis fitted with a bank of 40 122mm launch tubes arranged in a rectangular shape that can be turned away from the unprotected cabin. Currently there are 54 systems in service, all operated by the 8th Mixed Artillery Brigade.
History The LAROM is a Romanian native-made, highly mobile, multiple rocket launcher, attached to a DAC-25.360 6圆 truck, in service with the Romanian Land Forces, built in collaboration with Israel.
