The AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range, Air-to-Air missile is a new generation air-to-air missile. It incorporates active radar with an inertial reference unit and micro-computer system, which makes the missile less dependent upon the fire-control system of the aircraft. The Guidance was upgraded to the WGU-44/B standard and the warhead was improved to the WDU- 41/B warhead. It is based on the Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile and has a range of over 20 miles. The differences between the Aim-120B and Aim-120C are as follows: The wings are now clipped with allows for carriage of the Aim-120C in weapons bays for aircraft such as the F/A-22 Raptor and the JSF.

Most certainly, the odds of an air-to-air encounter over Iraq were very low. Our loadout for Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2004 was all air-to-ground (laser-guided bombs and JDAM), yet look at our wingtips. Going further with regard to the flying characteristics when carrying AIM-120s vs AIM-9 on the tips, the Viper is a beast, and in my opinion, if you're ripping the hell out of it in a BFM encounter, you're not noticing if the roll rate is so many degrees per second slower or faster, you are trusting your skill, and the jet, to maneuver to the control zone of the hostile for the kill.īut it really is more about wing flutter than anything else.
