    A tracked multiple launch rocket system (MLRS) is captured mid-firing on an open field, with a rocket visibly leaving the launcher and exhaust smoke billowing around the vehicle. The system appears to be elevated and oriented for launch in an overcast, foggy environment with a treeline in the background. The vehicle displays orange-red hazard markings and yellow warning symbols on its launcher pod.
