The -9 is indeed the Sidewinder, AKA the 'Winder, AKA the Heater! Many a day of my misspent youth was engaged in putting the beasts together, checking them out, or hauling them from Point A to Point B and back again.
I do have to agree with you though - the Tiger is probably the most graceful bird the Iron Works ever sent out the door, and as I can remember seeing the Blue Angels in their Tigers, your choice is going to look great. When you do build your F-4 and F-8, let me know - there's a lot of detail you can add to the weapons that really sets things off...so to speak.
Cheers,
Mike
