Matt,

This is one of the more fascinating conversion projects I've run across in a while! Allow me to offer my assistance - I'm pretty sure I've got a couple of 1/48 AIM-9s lurking about for the Tiger's missile armament, you are more than welcome to them. They're going to be later model -9s, but the beasts are VERY easy to backdate, and in that scale can be turned into neat little models on their own.

Cheers,
Mike
