These two aircraft along to others were spotted in the past few months around Moody AFB; more info here. Lebanon acquired six A-29 Super Tucano with Hellfire capability for $462 millions back in 2015. This article details all the specifications & capabilities of the Lebanese variant.

It is a matter of few days before these aircraft arrive to their final home base, and we are all so excited!
