Hezbollah unveils new Anti-Tank-Guided-Missile

When did they engage after the installation of the trophy system?
Equally never underestimate your enemy 2006 war taught isreal a valuable lesson. They haven't been back since
Following the series of tests of the Trophy system, the IDF Ground Forces Command declared the Trophy operational in August 2009.[32] It was scheduled to be installed in a full battalion of Israeli Armored Corps tanks by 2010.[33]

On March 1, 2011, stationed near the Gaza border, a Merkava MK IV equipped with the Trophy system foiled a missile attack aimed toward it and became the first operational success of the Trophy active defense system.[34]On March 20, 2011, a missile was fired at a Merkava MK IV tank equipped with Trophy system inside the Israeli area along the perimeter fence of the Gaza Strip. The system detected the attack, but determined that it did not endanger the tank and did not intercept it; it passed information about the shooting to the crew, who attacked the source of the fire.[35][36][37]On August 1, 2012, Trophy successfully intercepted an anti-tank missile launched from the Gaza Strip at a Merkava tank near Kissufim junction.[38]

On July 14, 2014, the Trophy system successfully intercepted a 9M133 Kornet anti-tank missile fired from Gaza at an IDF tank.[39] Since the beginning of the Israeli Operation Protective Edge to July 20, 2014, at least four Israeli tanks of senior commanders were protected by the Trophy system in the Gaza Strip.[40] According to reports from the front, since the beginning of the ground operation, the system successfully intercepted five anti-tank missiles that were aimed at armored IDF vehicles in Gaza.[9] On July 22, 2014, according to a video by a Palestinian group, the Trophy system installed on a Merkava IV tank successfully intercepted an RPG-29 rocket fired at the tank.[citation needed] According to Debkafile, Hamas has tried to stop Israeli tanks with two kinds of advanced guided anti-tank missiles, the Russian Kornet-E, and the 9M113 Konkurs, but Trophy intercepted them successfully.[41] The appearance of near-invulnerable mobile land platforms suggest the current warfare paradigm may need revising.[42]As of 2016, Trophy is operational on all Merkava Mark-IV tanks of the IDF's 401st Armored Brigade, and with the 7th Armored Brigade 75th Battalion new Merkava IV tanks. In July, the Israeli MOD announced it has completed integrating Trophy on its first brigade company of Namer APCs. In November 2016, it was announced that the IDF will buy hundreds more Trophy systems to install on almost all of its Merkava 4 MBTs and Namer APC/IFVs.


Operation Protective Edge​

No tanks were damaged during Operation Protective Edge, with the Trophy Active Protection system performing over a dozen interceptions of anti-tank weapons including Kornet, Metis, and RPG-29.[43] The system, by identifying the source of fire, on occasion also allowed tanks to kill the Hamas anti-tank team.[43]

Giora Katz, head of Rafael's land division, stated it was a "breakthrough because it is the first time in military history where an active defense system has proven itself in intense fighting."[44] During the war, Trophy validated itself in dozens of events, protecting tanks and crews over three weeks of high-threat maneuvering operations in built-up areas without a single hit to defended platforms and zero false alarms".[45]

My dear Gaza isn't Lebanon and 2006 even warships were taken out let alone tanks.
So even if trophy is an excellent system. Every system has flaws and hezbullah isn't asleep.

My dear,you asked about Trophy and I showed you the evidence. Take it as you want.

Good, so in your mind Israel is stronk because it has taken on Hamas. And the good side of story is that Hamas is a great power in your world. Goes to show me that Israel truly is stronk.
No man,Israel has taken on conventional Arab armies and survived. That's what makes Israel stronk.

Definitely, Hezbollah should not be overestimated. Although along with these anti-tank missiles, they are also going to plant lots of IEDs. Hamas was unable to destroy any Israeli tanks in 2014, cause damage yes, but not destroy. They did succeed with destroying APC's using IEDs. Hezbollah has a lot more land to work with , better weapons, and better geography in general.
Hizbollah is like a big commando force and has proved numerous times that it can be innovative and learn from mistakes.
I agree with you on the IEDs and mines. Of course Israelis too have developed vehicles and tactics for that,but of course they can't have minerollers and detection vehicles everywhere.

Nah, no tank was destroyed.

Only APC Hamas destroyed in 2014 was an M113 which will not be used in the next war.

I've personally been in the Combat Engineering corps in a unit that specialises in bomb disposal and I tell you we know how to deal with IEDs thanks to new technologies.

We can, we have a combat engineering force attached to every tank force.

When did they engage after the installation of the trophy system?

Mostly in 2014 although also a few times in other years before and since.

Trophy was used successfully around 200 times against Kornets, METIS, Konkurus, RPG29s and 7s

Lol, these aren't ballistic missiles, why do you assume Iran can't smuggle them? Israel allows Iran to ship weapons directly to Beirut airport. But when it comes to Gaza the whole world tries to prevent it. CIA, Arabs, Israel, and even Iran refuses to make a attempt to smuggle the....
It's pretty much impossible to smuggle weapons into Gaza.

It's also very hard to smuggle advanced weapons into Beirut. They mostly blow up on their way.

My dear Gaza isn't Lebanon and 2006 even warships were taken out let alone tanks.

Israel as a nation can instantly offer technological solutions to Hezbollah adaptations.

Besides the big advantage of Trophy is being able to kill ATGM crews before the missiles ever hit it, hard kill measures are just a backup plan.

You meant Hezbollah? Well,the last decade Hezbollah has been bombed numerous times in Syria by the Israeli Air Force.
Nothing to do with tank battles,but that's the only engagement they've had that I know of.

We also killed a Hezbollah ATGM crew a few years ago inside Israel after they "vowed for revenge" but didn't achieve anything, then they stopped talking.

to defend Tehran rich elite until the last Lebanese.

:lol:
Aside from your rant, Islamic revolution of Iran took place after occupation of Lebanese lands by Israelis.

Take a look at this story from this side, USA will fight Muslims till the last Jewish rat.

Israel was assisted by Arab kingdoms. Otherwise they couldn't have fought Arabs simultanously. Morover your weak analysis doesn't point to this very fact that Egypt of Nasser was fighting against a united front of AngloSaxon armies/navies. Israel on itself is a tiny rat, what allowed them to live for a couple of decades was support of western armies combined and united with each.

Slowly but surely your beloved rat is approaching its end. I hope you don't represent Greek people, since you act like an unmatched hypocrite. And FYI, the Jews that you covertly support, believe that Jesus prophet of Muslims and Christians was a bastard. They lied and God punished them by denying them land and an independent state. If Palestine falls completely into their hands, Jews will be able to make fun of us all.

You're in denial. There's no "weak analysis" here on my side,I'm only stating facts. 1948,1967,1973,1982. These are facts.

Because I mention historical facts and call you to look on the issue subjectively,you accuse me of being pro-Israeli and a "hypocrite"?

I'm not the biased one here,you are.

And FYI, the Jews that you covertly support, believe that Jesus prophet of Muslims and Christians was a bastard.
Jesus is the Messiah and not a prophet of Christians. I don't "covertly support" Jews. I tell things the way they are.
If you think Israel is a weakling and Jews cannot fight,what has been holding superpower Iran from retaking Al Quds all these decades? Don't tell me USA and Britain. You're supposedly so strong now that you don't care about them.


If Palestine falls completely into their hands, Jews will be able to make fun of us all.
Palestine is unfortunately completely in their hands. And they do make fun of us all.

Go read your own comments again. If you are so stupid to remember what you have previously done.

Let me explain what you did, You have appeared under the title of "Hezbollah unveiled an achievement" left a laughing emoji without even noticing the importance of this achievement then tried to undermine it by shit posting. Glorifying Israeli hardwares in disguise of countering my arguments and also making Hamas an example for superiority of Israeli Trophy which hasnt proven itself against a capable military force.

You have mistaken Jesus with God, how dumb and stupid you could be. Your religion was true but as of now its a dead body of true Christianity.

Btw, you deserve the award of best hypocrite in this website. Hypocrites like you delibrately forget to mention that Iran is the only force in the region to support anti Israeli countries/groups/elements in the region. According to Israeli reports, Iran has already surrounded them with 19 groups in the neighborhood of Israel.

This one achievement is undoubtedly an even bigger pain in your backside Greko.

A dual Kornet launcher. What an amazing achievement!

I'm showing you facts. If you are so biased as to not be able to distinguish technological advances by Israelis,that's your problem. It doesn't mean I'm pro-Israeli or whatever.

You have mistaken Jesus with God, how dumb and stupid you could be. Your religion was true but as of now its a dead body of true Christianity.
I call you back to order. You are the one who is mistaken here.

Iran is advancing Iran's agenda. That's all there is. It's good for Iran,but give me a break. You guys had been talking about "destroying Israel" for 40 years and all you did was proxy wars.

This one achievement is undoubtedly an even bigger pain in your backside Greko.
1.It's not a big achievement.
2.It doesn't affect me or my country.

Yes I did.
There have been no direct engagement between Israel and hezbullah. Israelis like most western powers are great sitting at 30000ft and bombing civilians and then claiming it was a terrorist when the real terrorists are themselves.
Once again your support for Israel is uncompromising and I am so glad Christians in Israel are being treated like


A goyam is a goyam

One more thing...just because Israelis say they bombed hezbullab in Syria doesn't mean they did...they are born to lie. P
