At first, these systems did indeed cause serious damage.
When the American M142 HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems were first delivered to the Ukrainian front, the attitude of the Western media towards them was like another “wonder weapon” that would certainly “change the balance of power” on the battlefield. At first, it really was like that: the Hymars managed to hit ammunition depots and fuel and lubricants in the Russian rear, frustrating plans to transfer equipment and ammunition to the line of contact.
But over time, the influence of this MLRS on the course of hostilities began to decline: the air defense system began to adapt to new threats, and now it became known that the Russian air defense system received updated software, thanks to which HIMARS missiles are now perceived as “normal targets”.
According to RIA Novosti, the words of the commander of one of the air defense units in the Zaporozhye direction, now the operators already “freely see, observe and destroy” HIMARS missiles without any problems.

It is worth noting that the M142 HIMARS is one of the most modern Western multiple launch rocket systems: these installations began to enter the troops in the 2000s-2010s, having managed to take part in the conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria before Ukraine.
