Have anyone a hi-resolution photos of historical missile systems - SeaSlug, SeaCat, SeaWolf (non vertical launch), ASROC, Bloodhound ets?
There's so little infos for scale modelling :(

Thanks a lot,

I think SeaCat was a failure against the A4s due to their agility only a success for those delta fighters used by Argentine

I just found this information sheet on Tigercat. It was on a Falklands war website. Did the Argentina use the tigercat system or did the British?

Argentinians. Tigercat had been largely if not totally replaced in British Service by 1982. Also IIRC it was only used by the RAF Regiment to protect airbases, and I do not believe any of them were deployed to the Falklands.

Regards.
