repeatedly until you here Allah telling you the bomb is OK to use.
Then go to the next bomb and repeat.

If we can be of any further help, please don't hesitiate to ask.

Only one thing wrong, Charlie. Old Hamid lives in the Stone Age thanks to the
Eye-ah-tollahs. They don't have hammers. Would a large rock do the job?

Dave - Thanks for your technical question concerning our bombs.
Large rock will do the job, but only if it's a left-handed rock.
These rocks can be pruchased through DoD contract for a mere $600.

Tom Cooper:

Sounds interesting. Sorry for my ignorance: what exactly is the AAD-5? An
IRST?

It's an IR detector system, two bands.

Their F-4Ds were delivered between 1968 and 1970 so are now actually between
34 and 35 years old. Some 15 have survived the war with Iraq, and remain
very much in service. In fact, instead of GBU-10s they are now armed with
indigenious Iranian Sattar-1/2/3 laser-guided missiles (a mix of (US) GBU-10
and (French) AS.30L technology), the Noor (an Iranian version of the
160km-range C.802K-2 anti-ship missile, directly comparable in capabilities
to the Harpoon), and R-73/AA-11 Archer air-to-air missiles (the last in
addition to the usual Sparrows)...

Tom,

I hope everyone else will forgive me for approaching this from a
modellers point of view, but a Phantom with a mix of Archer and
Sparrow missiles sounds like a must-build to me. Are there pictures
showing how these are carried either on the web or in one of the books
you mention?

Thanks

Rob

There is nothing of this kind on the internet, Rob: some first photos might
be published in a specific publication in December, but I can't definitely
confirm or deny this yet.

You might try rec.models.scale as someone there might have already done so.

I hope you won't mind be coming back to this subject in a few months then.

I will (another one of my regular haunts). However, I prefer a paper
reference to a plastic one; you wouldn't believe some of the ordinance
loads that end up on kits occasionally.

If you want a paper reference, you might try Google and spell the word
ordnance and not the improper ordinance which is a legal term.
