Didnt ASA-M had 2 additional canards next of each side of the basic one? Also had the vulcan removed for extra electronics? Not sure though but i think.

S version:

rectangular doors on air intakes
different nose gearasa version and asam version are advanced avionics versions with same S fusolage changes respect G version.

Not quite smokeless, check out this video from 2002 of two F-104S departing Gilze Rijen Air Base (and yes this was all filmed from public road) - in particular at 05:30 when they come out of AB. I think they smoked a lot less than the G models from memory, but you always knew with a F-104S was on the approach… you’d see a big black dot (of smoke) with a light in the middle… long before you could see anything of the plane itself

Witch J79 was the smokeless? 17 or 19? Ok not 100% smokeless but at least better than the 1st j79s. I know that HAF F-4E SRA had them. Now some AUP’s as the SRA’s decommissioned they still are source of parts as well some of the RFs i have to check my references [emoji16]

Yes, the AUP definitely smoke less than the original F-4Es and a hell of a let less than the AMI F-104S!!

Well… I think dema is right. And about those AMI’s, you can bet it, mate: we here still remember that.
With best regards.

Hello !
Long time ago, I promised a single seater F-104, following my F-104DJ.
Here we are !
This morning, I indeed decided to make the conversion, it was really difficult, but I have a good result.
I also updated the bare metal texture, to have something clean for liveries.
I then plan two models / three liveries :
- F-104J, JASDF and ROCAF liveries
- F-104C, USAF livery
Stay tuned !

Im talking for that colab we said to do…Hello Manos,
You didn’t disappointed anyone, you see, real life is more important.
For F-104G, as mentionned in the title from the beginning, I will make German Marine F-104G to have Kormoran missile and AS30 capability :

my 0.02c, the dorsal spine at the rear end of canopy area may need some tweak.

Yow! That looks fantastic! I need to dust-off my Kurile install, now…

Thank you for your report !
I did my best to update it.
Here is the first flight of my F-104J :

Looking good! Need a bit of work still in the spine but its looking amazing Radium! Im always amazed on how fast you work! Keep it up!
EDIT: Nevermind the work . Was the J using the early J-79? with the “short” AB pedals? Im sure for C as i am for the ejection seat. -
I would increase the fusolage height in the middle rather than touch the spine, I see a small “valley” on middle top fusolage.
Beautiful work indeed.

Thank you buddies !
Here are liveries I chose !
