The Indonesian contingent (Garuda Task Force) at UNIFIL, Lebanon, uses a variety of Main Weapon Systems (Alutsista), including armored combat vehicles and infantry weapons, to carry out peacekeeping missions.
As of April 2026, the following are the main defense equipment used:
1. Combat Vehicles (Ranpur)
The Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) deployed various armored vehicles to support personnel mobility and protection in high-risk operational areas:
Pandur II 8x8: A total of 18 units of this combat vehicle were deployed to strengthen troop mobility.
Anoa 6x6: This personnel carrier (APC) manufactured by PT Pindad serves as the backbone of mobility, with an additional 12 units delivered in 2025.
HMLTV (High Mobility Light Tactical Vehicle): A total of 11 new light tactical vehicles were deployed to strengthen Yonmek XXIII-S Task Force in July 2025 to enhance its authority and mobility in South Lebanon.
BTR-80A: An amphibious vehicle belonging to the Marine Corps that has been in service since 2009. Some units reportedly returned to Indonesia in late 2025 after a long period of service.
2. Personal Armament & Support
Soldiers are equipped with weapons for self-defense and UN mandate enforcement, including:
Grenade Launchers: SPG1-V4, SPG1-V3, and SPG1-V2 series in 40mm caliber.
Short Weapons: SAR-2 Pistol in 38mm caliber.
A non-lethal launcher for law enforcement use designed to fire a variety of cartridges including tear gas, smoke, and rubber balls.
Organic Weapons: Standard TNI assault rifles (such as the SS series manufactured by Pindad) remain the basic equipment of every soldier.
The security of this defense equipment has become a serious concern following incidents in late March and April 2026, in which UNIFIL vehicles were reportedly hit by shells and tank attacks in southern Lebanon.
