Low Cost Reduced Range Practice Rocket
Type: system
Definition
Low Cost Reduced Range Practice Rocket (LCRRPR) is a 227mm, inert training rocket used with the U.S. Army’s MLRS/HIMARS launchers to give crews a realistic live-fire practice round that can be shot safely on constrained training ranges. It is designed to mimic the handling and launch characteristics of tactical rockets while limiting range (commonly described in the single-digit to ~15 km range, depending on configuration) and omitting a live warhead, keeping training both safer and more affordable. The Army has described it as the primary live training rocket for rocket artillery crews, and Lockheed Martin has produced practice-rocket variants for this role.
