Antiship Missiles of "Lebanon"....
You know who owns them 😂! The C-802 is a medium-range antiship cruise missile (ASCM) developed by China in the 1970s-1980s. Iran began buying dozens from the Chinese during the 1990s until the United States pressured Beijing to cease sales. Iran then developed its own variant, the “Noor”, and transferred it to Hezbollah. Hezbollah’s C-802s are likely maintained and operated by Iranian military personnel. The C-802 has a range of 120 km while carrying a 165 kg warhead. It has a length of 6.39 m, a body diameter of 360 mm, and a launch weight of 715-800 kg. The missile is turbo-jet powered, high-speed subsonic, and sea-skimming capable. On July 14, 2006, Hezbollah fired two C-802s at the Israeli Saar-class corvette Hanit, which was enforcing a blockade along the Lebanese coast. One of the missiles successfully hit the vessel, killing four Israeli sailors.Until the strike, no one – including Western intelligence services – knew that Iran had managed to ship C-802 missiles to Hezbollah. It is unclear how many C-802 ASCMs Hezbollah currently holds. The Yakhont is an antiship cruise missile (ASCM) developed by Russia in the 1990s. It can be air-, ground- or sub-launched. The Yakhont has a range of 300 km while carrying either a 200 kg high explosive (HE) or 250 kg semi-armor piercing (SAP) warhead. It measures 8.6 m in length, with a body diameter of 670 mm and a launch weight of 3,000 kg. It is supersonic, capable of sea-skimming flight, and employs inertial navigation-based guidance. Russia delivered 72 Yakhont coastal defense missiles to Syria in December 2011, along with 18 TEL vehicles. Additional shipments of more advanced, radar-equipped variants followed in May 2013.57 Syria transferred a number of these systems to Hezbollah. As of January 2016, the United States estimates that Hezbollah possesses up to 12 Yakhont ASCMs. However, reports suggest that Hezbollah does not have the means to launch the missile without Iranian and/or Syrian support.Israel considers the Yakhont one of the main threats it faces from Hezbollah, as the missile threatens shipping along Israel’s entire coastline and could complicate any potential blockade of Lebanon.
