You might not be able to launch it without a french Mirage, or with some rigged up avionic lauching system. You could try to set it off when a motorcade passes by, or, a suicide mission with a small plane or helicopter.

Wonder. Are we training ME pilots used to flying Mirages? Are there any Mirages stationed in Egland in S Florida?

“Italian police have seized a French-made Matra Super 530F air-to-air missile in the course of raids to arrest multiple individuals allegedly linked to far-right extremist groups who had provided aid to groups fighting Russian-backed separatists in Ukraine. Authorities also uncovered a large cache of automatic rifles, submachine guns, and other small arms, as well as Nazi paraphernalia, during one of the arrests involving an individual linked to Italy’s neo-fascist Forza Nuova political party.”

2nd article the Italian seizure of the missle.

Here is where the Mirages are:

All pure speculation. I draw no conclusions.

(Still waiting on the Press conference. Maybe something there?)

Heading off F/R to do necessary things!

If you want to bomb a motorcade there are much easier, cheaper, and effective ways to do it.
