I have also seen one on the older Zil-131 truck, which is about to hit the market from Trumpeter.

I've found the top ones searching for "BM-21 ukraine" on Google image search.

You'll find a few more on Alamy.com (which is worth bookmarking BTW)

The Grad launchers pictured on this page apparently belong to the Russian 200th Motorized Infantry Brigade deployed in the Donbass area :
