    A military vehicle mounted with a multi-barrel rocket launcher system is captured mid-firing, with a rocket visibly leaving the launcher at high speed. The vehicle appears to be a camouflaged wheeled platform, likely a HMMWV or similar tactical vehicle, equipped with what appears to be a short-range air defense or surface-to-surface rocket system. Smoke and exhaust are visible around the vehicle, indicating an active launch event.
