If true, this was launched form the coast off Bedirut. It's a complex missile, not the small flying pip-boms that Hezbolaah uses. It requires some infrastructure to position andlaunch, and a trained crew. This menas that Hezbolah is embedded throughout Lebanon, not just the southern part, and the Lebanese government is worthless as a soverign entity. It's also a huge intelligence failure for the Israeils.

I'm having trouble with this one...The C-802 isn't just some shoulder fired easily concealed system. It requires a Radar system for target aquisition and mobile launcher the size of a car carrier. I don't see them transporting, delivering, setting up, testing and training the system undetected. Also the damage from a "hit" from one of these would be devestating.

I believe the story to be false.
