I've googled altavista'd and yahoo'd myself in the head. I'm currently building a 48th scale Polish Blk 52+ Viper and here's I go with the stupid: I seem to have seen somewhere and I can't find it, but it look as if 4044 was carring a "J" and the picture wasn't all that great.
It seemed to me to be a light grayish color, what color are they? I'm in the final stages of this forever build and would like to get this right
Thanks for any help

Allo wardog,
From the F-16 Armament part of the site:
Quote:
AIM-9J, AIM-9J-1, AIM-9J-3, AIM-9N, Rb 24
The AIM-9Js are rebuilt 9E or 9B missiles, sacrificing range for speed. Detachable double-delta controls were added, as well as solid-state electronics and a long burning gas generator. The J model has an expanded target-engagement cone which enables it to be launched at any spot in the rear half of a target aircraft rather than merely at its exhaust. The Dash-1 and Dash-3 are improved versions and actually all-new. the AIM-9J-1 later became the AIM-9N. The Swedish AIM-9J's are designated as Rb 24.

what do you mean if you said ' ...carring a "J"... ' ?
I would like to help you with this very much, believe me, but first I need to know more. |

Polish F-16 '4042' during display on roll-out ceremony in Fort Worth
I suppose that what you saw was in fact Smokewinder.
By the way, polish F-16 will be carrying AIM-9 X
Looking forward to see your model
