France may conduct combat testing of its new Thundart rocket system in Ukraine, according to French Aid to Europe, citing an anonymous source. There is no official confirmation. Thundart, developed by MBDA and Safran, is intended to replace France’s LRU rocket system and become a European alternative to HIMARS. The initial missile range is expected to be about 150 km, with a planned increase to 500 km in a later development phase.
