| Missiles made from Estes rocket tubes and nose cones. The tail cones are cut down nose cones. They represent HAARM and AMRAAM 120 rockets. |

| Originally the horizontal stabilators went straight across on the model. They needed a slight downward cant. I was going to leave them alone, but in the final days, I knew it wouldn't look right. So I cut and sanded until I had the right angle. (But not a right angle.) |

| I carved the ID lights out of basswood (one for each side) and glued them to two layers of thick card stock. |

| I used two pieces of tape to define the canopy frame. I also used the tape to make very thin fins on the nose cone. Not sure what they do, but they are a slight, but prominent feature. |
