Foreart Ukrainian M142 ‘HIMARS’ ATACMS/GMLRS (1/35) FOR5002
The Ukrainian M142 HIMARS is a cutting-edge artillery platform used in modern conflict zones to deliver precise, long-range firepower. With the ability to deploy either GMLRS or ATACMS munitions, this highly mobile system has become a critical asset for strategic operations, particularly where speed, flexibility, and combat resilience are paramount. This version includes the distinctive armoured cabin upgrade observed in frontline use.
Foreart’s 1:35 scale kit FOR5002 offers a comprehensive and realistic representation of the Ukrainian-operated HIMARS. Featuring a fully detailed chassis and powertrain, it replicates both interior and exterior with exceptional precision. Modellers can choose to build the vehicle with either the GMLRS rocket system or the larger ATACMS. The kit also includes an optional armoured cabin for enhanced realism, steerable front wheels, and doors that can be posed open or closed. Photo-etched and 3D printed parts add further refinement, and a bonus 3D printed driver figure is included.

History:
As conflict in Ukraine evolved, the deployment of advanced Western artillery systems, particularly the M142 HIMARS, marked a significant shift in battlefield dynamics. Offering both mobility and pinpoint strike capability, HIMARS has been used to great effect against high-value targets and logistics centres. The Ukrainian-modified variants have featured armoured cabins for added crew protection and have operated in demanding environments. With the ability to launch either GMLRS or ATACMS munitions, HIMARS has extended Ukraine’s operational reach significantly, reinforcing its status as a modern force multiplier in artillery warfare.
