    Glancing through the munitions in the article, HIMARS were originally developed and deployed in the 90s, not sure if they have a backup to GPS.

    Thr Excalibur system mentioned does have an inertial guidance system to fall back on but I would assume it would lose some precision that GPS would afford.

      Himars is based off of Vietnam era mlrs. There’s a lot of carry over… assuming “90s” is very generous.
