    Yeah, I know Poland went on a buying spree after Russia invaded, which included a mammoth amount of HIMARS launchers and missiles. I recall the US Army also decided to invest much more heavily in medium range fires, rather than just relying on the Air Force for PGM support. Apparently they got nervous about the prospect of a future war where someone figures out a way to deny US air supremacy; which could result to a reversion to trench warfare like we see in Ukraine. A solution to this is massed, accurate, ranged, ground-based fires.
