GGA + U(R) in VASP

I recently came across a presentation about Quantum Expresso with explanation of GGA + U(R) as the most suitable DFT method for bond-breaking and chemical reactions.

I tried searching VASP manual and the forum thread and there is no mention of such method.

Could anyone with a good knowledge about VASP capabilities help me confirm if GGA + U(R) method is implemented in VASP?

For GGA+U a LDAU tag is used. Cf. the posting
