 In October 2017, a Marine Corps HIMARS fired a rocket while at sea against a land target for the first time from the deck of the amphibious transport dock "USS Anchorage", demonstrating the system's ability to operate while on ships to deliver precision fire from a standoff range from shore defenses.The vehicle's targeting software was reworked so it can better fire while on a constantly moving and maneuvering launch platform.As of September 2007, the Singapore Army proposed to acquire HIMARS systems.
