Really wish Airfix had retooled the Jag in 1/72 rather than trot this back out.

Funnily enough, I’ve just received this ancient version courtesy of eBay; I think this dates back to the early 70s. I bought one back then but never made it.
I just love those 4 x massive missiles which I believe only came with this iteration:
which I think are AS 30s. Happy to be proved wrong! (If not, what are they?)

Bit pointy but yes AS30’s. Did the original boxing come with those? I know the Matchbox Jag did.
I might have to look into whether the early Jags were trialed with the MATRA JL100 on the centreline hard point. Always seemed a random thing for Airfix to include.
