Potentially new HIMARS leaks just about an hour ago.

preview

Since I have a Bilibili account and just saw the HIMARS getting tested by you-know-who, I want to do an FYI, no image, no link, just a write up. Note that all of this should not be taken as the final product, even the HUD is not finished, this is merely a preview:

* Single-seated.
* Both side get the same vic (oh well).
* Has 4 bars of HP (of unknown amount each, only LAB players know, which is not me).
* Might just be temporary but the thing is stupidly fast on the road, still not much collision at this point but if this is by design and make it to live server it could possibly flow thru a building.
* Can potentially soak 3 RPG-7V2 shots without going kaboom.
* Have no weak spot.
* Doesn't forced Can be fired from 3rd person so it's not sitting duck, but soo much smoke/particles/dirt & debries kicked up upon firing that you can't even see the truck, or anything for that matter.
* Has the same 1st person display view similar to BF4, just more zoomed-in.
* Can't be fired on-the-move (obviously),
* Seems to have somewhere around 850m of effective range and the rockets have very short air time, which is not unlike BF4 but boy it's damn annoying.
* Can be direct-fired like MBT/IFV or lobbed at "close'" range like the AMOS of the Attack Boat, but turret depression is poo poo so no hitting anything below like 20-25m.
