The Shayetet fighters which raided the KLOS-C transport ship in the early morning hours of Wednesday discovered dozens of M-302 missiles in the cargo bay below. The M-302 has a range of 200 km (125 mi), and the missile is similar to those launched at Israel eight years ago during the Second Lebanon War. The IDF emphasized that such missiles have significantly greater capabilities than those used previously by the terror organizations in the Gaza Strip. The weapon is a surface-to-surface missile of Syrian manufacture, first developed in the 90's. According to the IDF, the primary users of this missile type are the Syrian Army and Hezbollah - both in Syria and in Lebanon. Since its development, the M-302 has undergone a number of upgrades and now comes in five variations: The A model is the basic production of the missile. It has a range of 90 km if launched from sea level, and 100 km if launched from an altitude of 1,000 m or more. The rocket is capable of carrying a 170 kg warhead. The B model is a missile with a 100 km range when launched at sea level, and as high as 115 km when launched from an altitude of one kilometer. The warhead for the B variety can carry a payload of 175 kg. The C model is a missile with a 140 km range when launched at sea level, and as high as 160 km when launched from a high altitude. The warhead for the C variety can carry a payload of 140 kg. The D model is a missile with a 160 km range when launched at sea level, and as high as 180 km when launched from a high altitude. The warhead for the D variety can carry a payload of 144 kg. The E model is the most advanced missile, that has a range of up to 200 km when launched at sea level, and as high as 215 km when launched from an altitude of 1,000 m. The new model's warhead can carry a payload of 125 kg. The A and B varieties are the type of rockets used by Hezbollah during the Second Lebanon War. In August of 2006, Hezbollah launched 302 mm rockets named Khyber-1 which exploded deep inside Israel. This missile type was used to target the strategic port of Haifa during the war. The IDF boarded the Iranian ship without resistance, and there were no casualties in the open waters mission. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4495551,00.html The Palestinian terrorists from Gaza had lost again. Thank you Allah for teaching your followers a lesson.
Are you kidding ? On many of the cases you could see "made in Iran". Also the boat loaded the "goods" in Iran. The black Ayatullas will continue to support terror and violence.
"Made in Iran"? Was that written in Farsi or Arabic? I imagine you are fluent in both languages, and you were able to examine the cargo at first hand...
Lets ship bombs and rockets to the Real IRA post haste! Snake stretcher is fine with that. He doesn't care if you light up the UK. Just no ships in their waters. But kill whomever you have to. - - - Updated - - - What jihadis down there would you like to see better armed? Your anti semitism shows with your outrage over everything Israel.
Well, seeing as America had a hand in selling Armalite rifles and assorted military hardware to the IRA via your fund-raising activities (Noraid), I guess you have very little moral high-ground to totter upon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NORAID http://www.securitynewsdesk.com/201...ters-must-examine-their-consciences-over-ira/ Of course, in reality, these funds only went to the poor, barefoot, peat-hut dwelling and starving Irish peasants suffering under the jackboot of British Imperialism. At least that's what the smooth-talking IRA fundraisers told you...
Well now the Irish are much richer then the Brits per capita and in real median wage do they can buy their own rockets. Heck they can buy the poor hut dwellers in the UK.
Really? The Irish economy isn't as buoyant as it might appear: http://www.finfacts.ie/irishfinancenews/article_1027292.shtml
When you rise fast you get hit hard in recession but they have the fundamentals and a bit of right wing in them for attracting business and they will continue to prosper as the UKs importance in economics declines. Ireland just needs to cut some spending. You have a an anti business class warfare mentality to overcome. Ireland is a clear example of how the leftist mindset towards business causes stagnation. Every nation that moves towards economic freedom makes more money over time. If you saw that kind of rise in incomes in the UK you would throw a parade and rightfully so.
Congrats to Mossad for the job well done is what everyone should be yelling - these missiles are bad news indeed...
There is no writing on the cases in the pictures in the OP. Furthermore, the OP states that these are primarily SYRIAN weapons.
The OP didnt capture the ship only posted it. the ship itself is still at sea heading toward Israel port, when it lands it will take a day or two to go over the contents, then youll get pictures and exact quantity. Till then we only know how Israel captured it and since when it got it under surveillance. - - - Updated - - - In post #16 I think who gives a (*)(*)(*)(*) about your axis of evil rights ? lol
People talk about the Arab-Israeli conflict on a daily basis here. What we don't discuss often enough are the crimes against humanity committed by the North Korean government on a daily basis. Can we dispense with the over-sized bold type now? We're not blind, ya know... .
