Howdy Guys,

Well, they say "the proof is in the pudding" or in this case, "the picture". RJ's photo shows an amraam, I would recognize it anywhere, and I did a little "surfing" and found this site: http://www.namsa.nato.int/gallery/ws_amraam_e.htm

If you will click on it and look at the thumbnails, you can clearly see an amraam on the wingtip of the falcon.

Here is the enlarged photo from above:



And from this site: http://www.airforce-technology.com/p...6i/f-16i4.html you can see an israeli falcon with an amraam:





Anyway, neat shot of the arming switch RJ!

have a good day,

Greg
