Fiche
Pertinence pour les conflits
Ceci est la fiche unique du catalogue pour ce système. Il est pertinent pour le module ci-dessous ; le Force Atlas de chaque module montre comment il y est employé.
Opérateurs
Lebanon: The Lebanese army's armoured units are built on US-origin vehicles: Cold War-era M113A2 and A3 carriers form their bulk, the 32 M2A2 Bradleys ordered in 2017 were delivered in batches from August 2017, and the HMMWV is its standard armoured utility vehicle.
Rôle sur le champ de bataille
Protected mobility and fire support for an army equipped for internal security and border control rather than heavy combat — the vehicles with which the army deploys into the south, mans checkpoints and takes over sites under the 2024 cessation and the 2026 Framework.
Points forts
A single supply line with two decades of US funding behind it (more than $3bn since 2006 by the Arab Reform Initiative's count), training delivered with the systems, and the Bradley's step up in protection and firepower over the M113 fleet it supplements.
Limites
Dependence on US reimbursement and spares, with new assistance since 2026 "strictly conditioned on verifiable milestones" under the Trilateral Framework; an ageing M113 base; and no published holdings or serviceability figures, so the fleet's present size is not established from any source read.
Pertinence pour les campagnes
Dérivé : une organisation participant à ces campagnes porte une association d’équipement typée avec ce système. Ce n’est pas la même chose qu’un emploi documenté du système dans la campagne elle-même.

Emploi documenté dans les conflits
The army's 2017 operations against the Islamic State on the Syrian border, into which the first Bradleys were delivered; its deployment south of the Litani after November 2024 and into the pilot zones in July 2026, for which no vehicle-level documentation exists.
