. I had to wait for the enemy artillery to zero in, then use the trajectory of the shells to determine their position and transmit it to my own artillery to engage them before they fired from all guns. M777 does not have to zero in, because the first shot is on target.

I see now that you were being sarcastic, lol

But as someone its not M777 that is magic, it’s the Excalibur round. But even then, it’s not a significant increase in capability over Krasnopol besides range. Of course future supply of Krasnopol is not forthcoming, so the importance is more about supply.

A Czech-made RM-70 multiple launch rocket system has been spotted in Ukraine. RM-70 MLRS have been produced in Czechoslovakia since 1972. The RM-70 can be considered an analogue of the Soviet Grad MLRS, but the system has a number of distinct advantages. For example, it has greater cross-country ability and is able to hit targets at a greater distance. Until now, about fifty such MLRS remained in the Czech Republic, most of them were decommissioned and were in storage.

For Ukraine and friends with together more than 1 billion people should be a way for more and better supply of replacement weapons than for Russia with 140 million people.
In WW2 pretty much the whole of Europe was collaborating with the Nazis by the time they invaded Russia. Russia did fine then and it'll do fine now. If anything it's easier this time round.
