The Sakr-40 is an Egyptian 122 mm multiple rocket launcher in the Sakr family, using a 40-round launcher compatible with Sakr and Grad-pattern rockets. In the Yemen Civil War, Oryx identifies 122 mm Sakr-40 launchers among Houthi-held systems inherited from pre-war Yemeni Army stocks, placing it in the conflict's unguided area-rocket artillery inventory.
Houthi-aligned forces fielded 122 mm Sakr-40 multiple rocket launchers from pre-war Yemeni Army stocks, giving them a Grad-compatible area-fire system for unguided rocket salvos.
BM-21 Grad122 mm multiple rocket launcherThe BM-21 Grad is a Soviet 122 mm multiple rocket launcher built around a 40-tube launcher on a wheeled truck chassis. In the Russia-Ukraine War it remains a common area-fire system on both sides, valued for rapid salvos and mobility but dependent on shoot-and-scoot tactics because the launcher is carried on an unarmored truck.
KRL-122 Ghazab122 mm multiple rocket launcherThe KRL-122 Ghazab is a Pakistani 122 mm multiple rocket launcher derived from the BM-21 Grad family and associated with Yarmuk rockets from Pakistan Ordnance Factories. Public reporting in September 2023 identified Azerbaijani KRL-122 launchers in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, where the system filled an area-fire rocket artillery role against Armenian positions.
9K52 Luna-M artillery rocket systemArtillery rocket systemThe 9K52 Luna-M, known to NATO as FROG-7, is a Soviet wheeled short-range artillery rocket system whose unguided 9M21 rockets remained in Houthi hands during the Yemen Civil War, where they were used for close-range and cross-border strikes.
ASTROS IIWheeled multiple launch rocket systemThe ASTROS II is a Brazilian Avibras wheeled multiple launch rocket system built around modular rocket pods for 127 mm, 180 mm, and 300 mm rockets. In the Yemen Civil War, rights-group investigations documented ASTROS cluster munition rockets used by the Saudi-led coalition, making the system relevant to the conflict's long-range artillery and cluster-munition evidence record.
BM-27 Uragan220 mm self-propelled multiple launch rocket systemThe BM-27 Uragan is a Soviet 220 mm wheeled multiple launch rocket system built around a 16-tube launcher on the ZIL-135LM chassis. Its heavier rockets give it greater payload and range than BM-21 Grad-class systems, with warhead options including high-explosive fragmentation, cluster, and mine-scattering rounds. In the Russia-Ukraine War it remains a legacy heavy rocket artillery system used for area fires, minelaying, and counter-battery targets by forces that inherited or captured Uragan-family stocks.
Sakr-6 multiple rocket launcherLight 122 mm multiple rocket launcherThe Sakr-6 is a light six-tube member of the Egyptian Sakr/Grad-family 122 mm multiple rocket launcher lineage. In the Yemen Civil War, open-source vehicle lists identify it with Houthi-aligned forces as equipment inherited from pre-war Yemeni Army stocks, making it a compact unguided rocket-artillery system rather than a precision missile platform.
