of an AIM-120 C5 AAVI (AMRAAM Air Vehicle Instrumented).

الاخ الكريم
الخبر استغربه بعض الشيئ .. لماذا AIM-120 C5 و هو نسخه قديمه من الامرام ؟
الامرام AIM-120 C5 هو عاده النسخه التصديريه من الامرام التى لا يسمح بمواصفات اعلى منها " لبعض الدول "
و افسره ( على ما اعتقد ) بانه تجربه حيه للمشترين للطائره .. و لكن فى نفس الوقت .. ان كانت هذه الدول ستحصل على ال اف 35 المتقدمه .. فلماذا تمنع عنها النسخ الاحدث من الامرام ؟؟ .. حقيقه لا افهم لماذا

AIM-120 C5
اولا : هو عاده النسخه التصديريه للامرام

Foreign sales
In 2006 Poland received AIM-120C-5 missiles to arm its new F-16C/D Block 52+ fighters.^[25]
In early 2006 the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) ordered 500 AIM-120C-5 AMRAAM missiles as part of a $650 million F-16 ammunition deal to equip the PAF's F-16C/D Block 52+ and F-16A/B MLU fighters. The PAF get the first three F-16 Block 52+ on 3 July 2010 and first batch of AMRAAMs on 26 July 2010.^[26]
In 2007, the United States government agreed to sell 218 AIM-120C-7
missiles to Taiwan as part of a large arms sales package that also
included 235 AGM-65G-2 Maverick missiles. Total value of the package,
including launchers, maintenance, spare parts, support and training
rounds, was estimated at around $421 million USD. This supplemented an
earlier Taiwanese purchase of 120 AIM-120C-5 missiles a few years ago.^[25]
2008 has brought announcements of new or additional sales to
Singapore, Finland, Morocco and South Korea; in December 2010 the Swiss
government requested 150 AIM-120C-7 missiles.^[27]
Sales to Finland have stalled, because the manufacturer has not been
able to fix a mysterious bug that causes the rocket motors of the
missile to fail in cold tests.[

ثانيا : تطويرات و نسخ الامرام

الامرام 5-AMRAAM-120 C نسخه من الامرام تم بيعها منذ عام 2000 ..
و هو تطوير للامرام 4-AMRAAM-120 C و لكن بمحرك ااكبر بالاضافه الى تطويرات اخرى .. و تلتها نسخ احدث بتطويرات و هى AIM-120C-6 و AIM-120C-7

The AIM-120C-5 is a C-4 with a slightly larger motor in the new WPU-16/B
propulsion section and a new shorter WCU-28/B control section with compressed electronics and ECCM upgrades. Deliveries of the AIM-120C-5 began in
July 2000. It was followed on the production line by the AIM-120C-6,
which features an updated TDD (Target Detection Device).
The AIM-120C-7 (P3I Phase 3), development of which has begun in 1998,
incorporates improved ECCM with jamming detection, an upgraded seeker,
and longer range. The latter feature was specifically requested by the
U.S. Navy to get a (somewhat) suitable replacement for the
AIM-54 Phoenix very-long range missile
