Blue outlines the capabilities of jet artillery in the use of GMLRS missiles. Green indicates the range for ATACMS missiles if we get them from partners.

General Hodges made a prediction:

"HIMARS will soon be firing from Kherson. The approaches to Crimea are in range. This will complicate the Russian defence/confrontation line, while the "left flank" counter-offensive will occupy Mariupol and Melitopol before January. Then the decisive phase of the military campaign, the liberation of Crimea, will begin.
