The M201 Multiple Launch Rocket System is the heaviest artillery piece used by the United States Colonial Marine Corps. A heavy tracked transporter is used to carry eight 250mm rockets in large launch bins. The rockets themselves carrying munitions and mines designed to scatter over a target area up to 120km away. The rockets can be fired individually or in volleys, and reloading the system from a specialized ammunition carrier takes anywhere from ten to fifteen minutes.
