+Gepard 11,289 Posted February 22, 2011 http://www.airplane-pictures.net/news.php?p=929 Spotter pictures of the landing of the 2 libyen MirageF1. Question: Are this rocketpods on the hardpoints? They have no oppenings for rockets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macelena 1,070 Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Question: Are this rocketpods on the hardpoints? They have no oppenings for rockets. Most western rocketpods have a cover before firing for the benefit of aerodynamics. If you look at the shots taken from the tail on the ground, you can see the rockets and their tubes. Its a french rocket launcher, however, i can identify the type, i´m sure someone else will. Edited February 22, 2011 by macelena Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted February 24, 2011 NK now that is interesting, although that's on the border with China where there may be a reasonably healthy black market. Another one a few days ago... Arrests in Zimbabwe for watching BBC + Aljazeera Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FastCargo 412 Posted February 24, 2011 I doubt it. NK makes the majority of the Middle East look like 'Happy Fun Time Town'. I seriously doubt anything will gain traction there. FC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr.Viper 131 Posted February 25, 2011 Curiouser and curiouser According to the reports, Saif al-Arab, Gaddafi's youngest son, who was sent by his father to cooperate with Libyan security forces in the massive crackdown on pro-democracy protesters joined forces with the demonstrators in the eastern city of Benghazi on Thursday No good info on sources though. Russian news sites (quite content with the oil price rise) say the report comes from an Iranian outlet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
