Being fired
(its also worth noting that the guiding pods were moved to a compartment in the nose, so it could use the other pylons)

Something that i might add to the Martin Pescador, certain books, magazines (from the time when the MP was doing its debut with the COAN) estimated or assumed that the missile was homologated or at least tested in the Super Etendards (SUE). Thing that...seems to be false. According to former COAN's personnel, this was never tried or at least there is no record of such thing happening.

This idea of the MP on the SUE was probably influenced by foreginers seeing the MP next to a SUE in an expo or any other event.

Still it could have been a strange thing to see, i guess useful for training, but as long as the Missile had that primitive guiding system...it wasn't a pretty good choice.

Short video of the VITRO RIR 778 radar (brought back to use and modernized), but pay attention to the part where we can see the launch of an Alacran missile !!

Argentinian PAT-1（Proyectil Argentino Teledirigido）anti ship missile ,PAT-2 was a cruise missile based on Germany V-1 missile .

The PAT-1 was not based on the V-1, but on the Henschel Hs-293, as is obvious when you compare them.

Probably the only image (this is a still from a video) showing an IA.58 carrying two Martin Pescador missiles. If i find the video, ill share it here.

My post and tweet are clear.
Let's go again:

Drawing of the wind tunnel model of the Dardo II gliding bomb, tested in the main tunnel (the subsonic one) in 1998, when it belonged to LMAASA.

In one of the gardens of the Argentine Air Force Applied Research Center, the "Alacran I" Heavy Artillery Rocket stands as a Gate Guardian and a testament to a great past. If you drive along Fuerza Aerea Argentina Avenue, from the city of Villa Carlos Paz to the city of Córdoba, you can see it before reaching FAdeA.

The Alacran is mounted on its upper trailer, which slides on eight wheels. This trailer, in turn, was mounted on the lower two-axle cart or trailer and towed by a 4x4 MAN truck. Added to this were the mission command and control shelters and the technical support shelter, all on 6x6 MAN trucks.

The launch pedestal was raised by hydraulic and electrical systems.

If the Alacran had this, the Condor II moved like the Pershing II with MAN technology... just a little bigger.
