Wow bro, I’d like to know if the Derby with the yellow stripe will be the same as the one you can see on the Kfir (which has a blue stripe) but maybe that’s the only difference.
I would like to think that it is due to differences between users. For example, there is also a blue line in the SU30MKI, even though the missile is a different colour. I don’t think it’s relevant to look for that as a difference. Also, the Kfir is carrying a Derby-ER, as confirmed by the photographer’s statement in the picture.

They sure do. Which is why that last picture isn’t an I-Derby ER, but actually a regular Derby on the F-16B Block 10 4X-ACE prototype.
Even if that’s true, it doesn’t change my point, which is that the Derby and the I-Derby and the I-Derby ER are exactly the same physically
Well yes ofc, but just pointing out something incorrect is all. It’s well know they share the same exterior model (despite some people claiming the rolling fins are different), it’s the propulsion that’s changed. From what I’ve seen it likely has the same seeker as the I-Derby on top of that.
