Lebanese Army receives 100 Hellfire missiles

The USA has expedited arms and ammunition shipments to the LAF in the wake of August 2014 Battle of Ersal with ISIS and Nusra Front (More Info).

By the end of that month, the USA had already delivered 480 AT-4 missiles, 1500 M16-A4, and 60 mortars (Ref). The USA promised to deliver more arms and ammunition in the following weeks without the need to issue press statements upon each delivery.

Among these following deliveries, the USA delivered 100 Hellfire missiles, as confirmed by Aram Nerguizian (Ref). Aram also detailed later that the shipment included the Thermobaric variant (AGM-114N) of the missile (Ref).

The LAF has successfully used the missile since the eruption of the battle using the Cessna AC-208B.
