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
