I don’t think that missile is a sparrow due to the color markings being different
It looks more akin to a AAM-4
I believe it is an AIM-7. First off, the color scheme matches low-vis AIM-7F or AIM-7M rather well, with a grey body, white seeker, and darker fins. In addition to that the fins appear to be triangular, with the one at the rare being notably smaller than the centrally mounted one, which matches the layout of the AIM-7.
On top of that I don’t believe it matches the color scheme of the AAM-4. Whenever I see images of live AAM-4 they seem to be fully white, with black fins, as the AAM-4 seen in the image you provided.
I’ve only ever seen the low-vis colors on the AAM-4B, such as the one on the second image you provided (as well as the current in game model, which resembles the AAM-4B)
I could be wrong about the AAM-4 colors though, as that could just as easily have been a coincidence.
I want gaijin change armament on F-4EJ KAI in dev server Major Update “Seek & Destroy”
- AIM-9P x2 stock replace by AIM-9L
- AIM-7M Sparrow & AAM-3 swap AIM-9P x4 & AIM-7E x4
- Increase lock range AIM-7F to 80 km
- Decompress max BR to 12.0 or 12.3

we will have JDAM in the next update, why not F4EJ Kai?
(and AAM3)

F-4EJ Kai is not able to use JDAMs, this was reported on the DevServer when we got it.
The lack of AAM-3 has been reported and acknowledged, seems to be a balance decision however. Maybe we can still get a F-4EJ Kai ADTW with AAM-3, MAWS and some other (experimental) armament options in the future.

sad then
I find their excuse quite lacking, the F-4EJ kai would do quite fine with AAM-3’s, just put it at a slightly higher br like 12.7 / 13.0, it handles itself quite fine against planes that are 13.7,
i can tell you : you don’t want this to happen : german’s are forced to do it with thier F-4F KWS, and it’s playbale thank to the godly modeled AIM-120.
F-4EJ Kai, with AAM-3 would not gain much more capabilities, and will be destroyed from afar.
F-4EJ Kai can and will be quite fine in higher br’s. although it won’t win turnfights it’s still capable of doing well in medium range engagements. only air to air missiles it’s missing are AAM-3, AIM-7M’s and AAM-4 and AAM-5’s.
AAM-4 was tested without launching as I know but where from is AAM-5?

Are as good than AIM-7F’s, In game wise.
There is photos about that loadout, but apart bumping the aircraft up in BR, and without HMD, the AAM-3 is still very limited due to the F-4EJ Kai turn capabilties.
Even the current early F-15J having them have trouble using them in dogfight,… for the exact same reason.
Play it today, go get yourself against the current 13.3(12.3+1.0),… you’ll have some trouble against AV-8B AIM-120A.
But AV-8B can be beaten close range,…
If the F-4EJ Kai recieves AAM-3 → 12.7 BR, also means constant uptier against much more capable aicrafts (Mirage 2000-5F, F-15C,… and other Fox-3 slingers)
The aircraft then will have no chance.
Honestly would make for better stock grind. Currently ahistorical AIM-7E are roadblocking the 7Fs
Having 7F → 7M instead (while arguably redundant) would allow for getting superior missiles earlier.
And those air to air missiles would make it 13.0.
AAM-5s would make it 14.x.
And AAM-4s can’t be used.
AAM-5s weren’t used on any EJ Kai as far as I’m aware, so they are not an issue.
AAM-4 have been tested using ADTW F-4EJ Kai aircraft.

I play the EJ Kai almost daily, against current 13.3 it’s actually performing smoothly, idk maybe its just a skill issue on your side
and i played against 13.7 before (did a funny) had literally 0 issues it was just another day another air rb match
also laughs in pulling 16G’s in the ej kai

But it is only seeker pod which simulated AAM-5 seeker but it is not the AAM-5 missile.
The problem is that there is no photo to approve it. Also it is not known was F-4 capable to launch them or it was only telemetric tests
