    Is there a similar at USMC? If so, how is it employed? I've heard some discussion about his system employed by brazilian marines.

      yeah there is. the MLRS on the US Army's FMTV. pretty similar but i think the Brazilian system gets more rockets but they have a smaller payload. otherwise, they do the rocket thing. strike deep and scare the shit out of whoever gets hit.

      So, it is very similar to ASTROS' proposal. :-) It has a wider range of caliber and reach than MLRS but still lacks a GPS guidance.

      Thanks
