Cataloged combat use spans Desert Storm Apache strikes, Operation Iraqi Freedom aviation engagements, counter-ISIS and counterterrorism drone operations, Israeli helicopter fire in 2023, Ukrainian counter-drone Tempest vehicles assessed with AGM-114L Longbow missiles, and the secretive AGM-114R9X kinetic variant reported in low-collateral targeted strikes.

Its public conflict record is narrow: defense reporting has identified it as the probable missile in the January 2020 Baghdad strike that killed Qassem Soleimani, while official U.S. confirmation of the munition type remains absent.

Air Force and Federal Register sources describe it as the mechanical and electrical bridge between the missile, aircraft rack, launch computer, and host aircraft, while 2022 reporting on Ukraine documented LAU-118/LAU-118A adapter use on Soviet-era fighters firing HARMs in the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War.

It carries one six-rocket pod, two PrSM missiles, or one ATACMS missile, uses a five-ton truck chassis with an armored cab, and can deploy by C-130-class airlift. Lockheed Martin reported the 750th launcher delivery in November 2025, while its combat record spans U.S. operations and Ukrainian long-range fires against Russian forces.
