One of the often dismissed features of a Tomcat is its very complex underbelly. Firstly, as can be seen on the left-hand side, the Tomcat can carry two AIM-7 Sparrows in a dedicated missile well in the tunnel (+2 AIM-7 on the front stations, which I forgot to hang...). n order to hang the pallets for AIM-54 Phoenix, the missile well had to be covered (pic in the middle). Only then all four Phoenixes could be installed (right-hand side).
