BM-27 Uragan (Russian: Ураган), translated as "Hurricane", system code 9P140, is a self-propelled multi-tube rocket launch system designed in the Soviet period. It began to be equipped with Soviets in the late 1970s, and it was the first heavy-duty multi-tube rocket launch system that used modern tail fins to rotate stable rockets.

The BM-27 Uragan is mounted on the rear of the Jill-135 heavy 8x8 chassis using a 16-tube 220mm rocket launcher. The chassis is the same model as the chassis of the Frog-7 rocket launcher. Installed with two petrol engines, it can drive this 20-ton vehicle to a maximum speed of 65 kilometers per hour. One engine drives the four wheels on the left and the other engine drives the four wheels on the right. Although the Gil-135 truck has eight wheel drives, only the front and rear axles can be turned. The maximum mileage is 500 kilometers.

The Gil-135 truck's cab has three-proof capability, which allows the occupants to launch rockets in a nuclear and biochemical environment without exposure. Four crew members can deploy or withdraw the system within three minutes.
