Hrim-2

Hrim-2 (Ukrainian: «Оперативно-тактичний ракетний комплекс «Грім»), also known as Grіm-2 (sometimes referred to as Grom), is a Ukrainian prospective mobile short-range ballistic missile system being developed by Yuzhnoye Design Office and A.M. Makarov Southern Machine-Building Plant, planned to combine the features of tactical missile complexes and multiple rocket launchers. The missile range for the export version is 280 kilometers, limited by the Missile Technology Control Regime limiting the proliferation of missiles and missile technology. Technically, the missile range is up to 500 km.[1] Reportedly the missile system research and development has been covertly financed by Saudi Arabia.[2]
