It seems that Hezbollah is only using rockets and an occasional drone as of late. It only takes a tube and squib battery for the solid fuel rocket but a guided missile is launched from a sophistocated platform that is connected to the missile by an umbilical cable. The launcher does a lot of jobs before a missile can be fired. There is a self test, a missile test, some method of programming in coordinates, usually by GPS data. Then the servo motors have to spin up the servos to a certain speed and lock them in before the firing sequence can be completed.
What I'm wondering is whether Hezbollah could only afford a couple of launchers and a lot of missiles since a launcher is the most expensive to buy and maintain. Also, it's reusable while missiles are one shot vehicles.
I think that they would have used more by now if it was possible.
