It depends on where the missle is launched from. A surface fire IR would strike right in the midsection and so would anything else launched from a lower altitude. You also have to realize that this would be hitting right about where the wings meet the fuselage. Not a good place for an explosion.

Plan_D, the Hornet F/A-18 is still very good. As for the Mig-29s most that were in Iraq tried to flee to Iran, where they were held and not returned. As for the story of the shootdown, I think it is true, should look for it in AirForce History.

I don't believe I said the F/A-18 was a poor aircraft even if it is slow. I know of the aircraft handovers to Iran but I still never realised they had MiG-29s.
