The SR-5 multiple launch rocket system is a recent Chinese development. It is a medium-range system.

Currently there are two types of pods for the SR-5. It can fire 220-mm and 122-mm rockets. These rockets have different ranges. Rockets are fitted with various warheads, including HE-FRAG, incendiary, smoke and illumination. Also there are cargo warheads with anti-tank or pre-fragmented anti-personnel submunitions. Some rockets have a GPS guidance for precision strikes.
