Post by Zaggy » 2001-09-19 10:56:00

Finally found these pics again... AIM-132 on RAAF Hornets... Im told a HMS system has also been purchased and is being fitted to all a/c... pretty cool...

Some may find it interesting.. :)

Are those actual AIM-132s or mockups? If you notice the close up pic on the missile the tail cone is solid.. No rocket motor exhaust...

Yeah... Theyre dummy rounds (no yellow band - live warhead, and no brown band - live rocket motor), but the RAAF now does operate AIM-132... If you look at the AIM-9's and AIM-7's you'll see those are just weight as well....
