The Pentagon is working on a scenario for a war on the islands.
Units of the U.S. Army's 25th Infantry Division, along with the U.S. Air Force's 15th Airlift Wing, conducted a rapid deployment exercise for M142 Highmars multiple launch rocket systems in Hawaii on Nov. 10. Crews from the 2nd Battalion of the 11th Artillery Regiment participated. Transfer of jet systems was carried out using C-17 Globemaster III aircraft.
The exact transfer route of Hymars has not been revealed, but from the description the general scheme can be reconstructed:.
Origin: Pearl Harbor-Hickam Area (Joint Base) (Island of Oahu, Hawaii) - Operations for training and interaction with C-17 aircraft were recorded there.
Arrival area: the island of Kauai (Hawaii) - unloading and moving the facility to the preparation area for the firing position.
