In recent years, several of new improved probability distributions have been discovered from the current distributions to facilitate their applications in various areas. A new three-parameter model extended from the linear failure rate model, the so called the type II half logistic linear failure rate distribution. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution are proposed. Explicit expressions for the moments, probability weighted moments and order statistics are calculated. Maximum likelihood estimation method is assessed to estimate the model parameters are presented. The superiority of the new distribution is illustrated with an application to one real data set.
