It’s gun and radar are missing, pic 3 shows it’s origin look, much batter.
This may be slightly controversial but i wouldn’t mind an Argentinian A-4AR in the German tree.

Might be worth looking into Pakistaini equipment? The only Sabres Bangladesh ever had where war trophes from the third(?) Indo-Pakistaini war. Maybe something Soviet or Chinese? Their sabres did operate ground attack along side their Shenyang F-6’s
Bangladeshi FT-5s mounted AIM-9L
Yes, Pakistan left them during the liberation war of Bangladesh. Due to the lack of spare parts and ammunition after independence most of the sabres had parts and engines salvaged from many different aircrafts. I think this is a AIM-9B converted into some kind of unguided rocket.
You are thinking about Pakistan’s F-7PG. Shenyang F-5s used PL-2. Bangladeshi ones probably had PL-1(K-5)
I was wrong, it’s Pakistan’s FT-5 that mounts AIM-9L
I dont think any FT-5, F-6 ever used AIM-9L. I couldn’t find any evidence.
I found a higher res scan
it’s deffo an aim-9, however I don’t think it’s been converted into an unguided rocket. To me it looks like just the motor body, no warhead or anything forwards of the motor, so I think it might a ground crew training aid or half mock up intended for display purpuses. tbf I can’t even see the hole for the motor fuse although that might be hidden in the shadow of the launch rail

Maybe a few decals from this interesting period of cooperation between Saudi Arabia, North Yemen, and Taiwan
