Q-37 and Q-36 balistic radars are deployed with all FA units at both battery and brigade level in US ARMY. Modern arty is about shoot and scoot. That is why MLRS becomes so valuble. An M270A1 launcher can lay (aim), fire a 6 rocket barrange, and stow in less than 60 seconds. Any unit that sits at a fire point for more than 60 seconds risks counterfire. The combination of dedicated counterfire units, tag radar, and all digital C3 systems means that counterfire comes rapidly and is very accurate.
