Hezbollah reveals specs of newly-deployed Fadi-1, Fadi-2 heavy rockets

The Military Media unit of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon released a video detailing the specs of the Fadi-1 and Fadi-2 rockets that were launched early Sunday by Hezbollah during its three operations that targeted the Israeli Ramat David military base and airport and the Rafael military-industrial complex, north of the occupied city of Haifa.

The video revealed that Fadi-1 and Fadi-2 are tactical surface-to-surface rockets used in wide-range bombardments, meaning that they are not precision-guided. Both rockets were put into service in the 2006 July War.

According to Hezbollah’s Military Media, Fadi-1, which can be launched from stationary or mobile platforms, is used to disrupt supply routes and target bases far from the frontlines and is also used in extensive bombardment to overwhelm air defense systems.

It is equipped with an 83 kg warhead, has a caliber of 220 mm, is 6 meters long, and has a range of 70 kilometers.

As for Fadi-2, the video explained that the rocket’s warhead is highly explosive, rendering it extremely efficient against fortified sites, infrastructure, and large crowds of enemy forces. It enjoys a 170kg warhead, has a caliber of 302mm, is 6 meters long, and has a range of 100 kilometers.

Hezbollah announced that it carried out the three operations against targets in occupied Palestine as part of the initial response to the brutal massacres committed by the occupation in various Lebanese regions, on Tuesday and Wednesday, when it detonated thousands of pagers and wireless receiver communication devices, commonly known as walkie-talkies.

Field sources confirmed that the rockets launched at the Ramat David Airbase originated from Hezbollah’s complex underground “Imad” bases, which host multiple rocket launchers and forces.

Sources said that the Imad 4 base displayed in one of Hezbollah’s videos is one of dozens that have “not been affected by all of the enemies’ raids.”

Our sources emphasized that this attack did not include the use of precision-guided missiles and was only a preliminary response to Israeli aggression.
