	AIM-7 Sparrow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The AIM-7F, which entered service in 1976, had a dual-stage rocket motor for longer range, solid-state electronics for greatly improved reliability, and a larger warhead.
		Even this version had room for improvement, leading British Aerospace and the Italian firm Selenia to develop advanced versions of Sparrow as the BAe Skyflash and Selenia Aspide, respectively.
		The ultimate version of the Sparrow, the AIM-7M, with a new inverse monopulse seeker (matching the capabilities of Skyflash), active radar fuse, digital controls, improved ECM resistance, and better low-altitude performance, entered service in 1982.

	BAe Sky Flash / Alenia Aspide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The British Aerospace Sky Flash and the Alenia Aspide share a common heritage, both are based on the U.S. AIM-7 Sparrow.
		It is upon this missile that both the BAe Sky Flash and the Alenia Aspide were based.
		Sky Flash and Aspide are very similar to Sparrow in construction, Sky Flash being just a little longer and wider.

		It had the ability to carry the Selenia Apside 1A medium- to long-range radar-guided air-to-air missile in place of the AIM-7E Sparrow III.
		The Apside 1 is a developed version of the AIM-7E Sparrow with a new CW monopulse seeker head with home-on-jam capability, improved ECCM, active radar fuse, longer range (22 miles) and new wing control actuators.
		For air intercept missions, the F-104S ASA typically carries an AIM-9L Sidewinder under the port wing, an Alenia Aspide 1A missile underneath the starboard wing, and two wingtip tanks.

		The main changes included replacement for the radar by an FIAR R21G/M1 Setter with improved range, moving target indicator and look down/shoot down capability.
		The missile armament was upgraded with provision for the AIM-9L version of the Sidewinder and the replacement of the Sparrow with the Aspide 1A radar-guided missile.
		Due to delays in the Eurofighter, the AMI was forced to embark on yet another upgrade program to keep the Starfighter force in service until its replacement becomes available.

	Lockheed F-104S Starfighter
		Although the last AMI single-seat F-104Gs were withdrawn from service in 1983, substantial numbers of F-104S fighters remained in service with the AMI throughout the early years of the 21st century.
		In place of the Sparrows, a pair of Selenia Apside radar homing air-to-air missiles can be carried.
		Up to 7500 pounds of bombs, rockets, napalm tanks, and fuel tanks could be carried on nine hardpoints (four underneath the wing, two at wingtips, one centerline, and one at each fuselage side).

	F104S The Italian Starfighter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		In the increasingly budget restricted times, several weapons systems upgrades were considered to extend the life of the Starfighter.
		The weapons system computer was upgraded and the system now allowed the operation of the all aspect AIM-9L Sidewinder and the longer range Aspide 1A version of the Sparrow.
		Developed by Selenia, this had longer range and all aspect attack profiles, a great improvement over the AIM-7E.

		Naval references all listed the French TAVITAC as the CDS on Luhu, but in fact both ships had the Italian Selenia Elsag IPN-10 CDS console.
		The system maintenance and operation needs include not only the eight-barrel launcher, loader, magazine and missiles, but also associated Sea Tiger search radar and Castor missile guidance radar, infrared localizer and television tracker.
		After the Luda/Luhu, Chinese-built LN-60 missiles are unlicensed copies of Italian Aspide air-to-air missiles.

		MODERNISATION : Exocet, torpedo tubes and Lynx helicopter facilities were all added in RN service, but torpedo tubes were subsequently removed in all but Badr and Shahjahan and all are to be retrofitted by Pakistan using Swedish equipment.
		Exocet was not transferred and the obsolete Seacat SAM system is being replaced by Chinese LY 60N which is a copy of Aspide.

		The first upgraded aircraft was flown in 1984, with service deliveries from 1986 into 1983.
		The F-104S ASA featured the improved FIAR R21G/M1 radar with look-down shoot-down capability; a capable self-defense suite with an RWR and chaff-flare dispensers; and carriage of the Selenia Aspide 1A AAM, a derivative of the AIM-7E Sparrow.
		The Vulcan cannon was refitted to upgraded interceptors, since the avionics had shrunk considerably in the meantime.
