i have the blackdog Javelin set but i was wondering if anyone does additional rounds as after market extras, i think it might be possible to make some from the blackdog set but i would need some decent pictures of replacement ammo tubes and all i can find on the net is pictures of people firing the weapon system.

The tube is the same on a launcher and a reload. The CLU (Command Launch Unit) attaches to each tube and then is removed after firing.

You might ask Gilles from Blast Models, if he sells you some of his excellent Javelins.

It's like the old M47 Dragon that the Javelin replaced. Also like the AT-4 and M72 LAW. The tubes are destroyed after each shot. As with the Dragon and Javelin, the sights are not replaceable.
Before I switched from missiles to communications in the Army, i got to get the maintenance class on the Javelin. It's a pretty cool peice or arsenal.

Personally i would have thought Live Resin would have made some of these javelin weapons systems and additional ammunition.

David,
I, think you may have mistakenly posted the same comment above about the Javelin in Sherb’s Tamiya Sheridan build post? Check it out.
