What sort of big honking AAMs do they have on those, anyway? Do they seriously still have any working AIM-54s anymore (and that's assuming they ever actually worked)? |
You not going to believe this...
Its a HAWK SAM...
Other than those the Iranians have maybe 50 or so AIM-54s, and apparently Iran's AIM-54s laid down the pain on the Iraqi Air Force, the Iranians claim a 164-1 kill ratio with the Tomcat. (for whatever that is worth
) Something like 20-30 AIM-54 hits; incl. a 3fer on a flight of floggers (try saying that when your drunk!)
