Barry Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Chris, I know I have asked you before, but have forgotten. What Sidewinders did the Nam F-4's use? I'm talking 1968. Man, I wish I could get the whole pylon and missle set up for the SU-27. You already know I have all the rest of your wonderfull resin updates for it!. Cant say enough good about Chris's excelent parts and service! .......Harv Harvey, check out these AIM-9 sites. http://www.sci.fi/~fta/aim9.html http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/m-9.html This site lists US Air to Air Kills and type of weapon. Note if the weapon shows AIM-9 without an "alpha" like D/G/E then it was an AIM-9B. http://www.acig.org/artman/publish/article_243.shtml Hopes this helps.

Barry Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The Tamiya F-4's all versions have AIM-9 missiles that IMO look like the AIM-9E and are not badly done. It really depends on how much detail you want on the missile. Cutting Edge did a set of AIM-9E's. There are nicely detailed as are the other CE AIM-9s but measure a short in the body length.

Zactoman Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 OK....what are the best AIM-9E? I would say that the "best" AIM-9E haven't been made yet... Thanks for the nice comments guys! I'm looking forward to seeing your builds using ZactoParts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
