LAF received M549 HERA and M72A1 LAW in 2014

DSCA has updated its public Excess Defense Articles database with new interesting data. The database shows that the LAF received large quantities of cartridges, projectiles, grenades, and training ammunition in 2014, including:


M549 High-Explosive Rocket Assisted (HERA) 155mm howitzer rounds 36
M72A1 LAW HEAT 66mm 227
Various types of 40mm rounds 5881
Various types of .50 Cal rounds 1,236,953


The M549 HERA is the most notable item which extends the 155mm round to 30KM if fired from M198 thanks to the rocket motor component.
