OK, for some of you (other) old timers out there, I was told pilot's got the following patch after firing a live MAVERICK in the 1980's. This particular one came from the 512th TFS at Ramstein when they still had F-4E Phantoms... <img src="http://i4.ebayimg.com/02/i/01/3a/64/97_1.JPG" border=0> So, fact or fiction? Cheers! M2 |

True! Raytheon provides patches to every pilot that fires a Maverick (peace or combat). The peacetime patch is a spin-off the one you have here (I've got one somehwere around here). I also have an OIF Maverick patch somewheres. When I find it, I'll scan it and put it up here for ya. |

If they filed the Maverick Firing Report with Raytheon, they did! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> |

goose i was there just not as close! dosent it say somewhere in the T.O. in a WARNING to make sure the cannon plug isnt connected to the back of the launcher. I t sure want funny at the time, but to look back on it now I would have loved to see the face of the guy when he 'pickled' it off! I was down the road in the ICT spots witht he beach whn a weapons guy dropped a mk82 picking it up off the trailor. I didnt know I could run that fast!
