Thursday, 11 April 2019

With the presence of the Armed Forces Commander General Joseph Aoun and US Ambassador Ms. Elizabeth Richards and several officers, the air force ‎performed a live fire maneuver in Hanoush – Hamat, using 70 mms APKWS laser-guided rockets that were tried for the first time after the handover of the A-29 Super Tucanos.

The importance of the shooting lies in testing the complementarity between Cessna Caravan & A-29 Super Tucano and maneuvering units in order to hit targets with ultimate accuracy.
