achterkirch Posted July 8, 2024 Author Share Posted July 8, 2024 (edited) Here’s another one but it’s labeled as DATM-174B. I guess I haven’t seen D before for a designation? Anyone know what it means? Edited July 8, 2024 by achterkirch Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Da SWO Posted September 20, 2024 Share Posted September 20, 2024 @Dave Roof How are these mounted? Looks like a collar around the missile to me? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achterkirch Posted September 22, 2024 Author Share Posted September 22, 2024 Looks to be directly mounted to the pylon. https://theaviationist.com/2024/07/08/aim-174b-aim-120-size-comparison/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
