AIM-7 Sparrow scale data needed please.

[jazzviper1]

Looking for any scale data on the AIM-7 Sparrow air to air missile.
TLP plans and patterns would be helpful as well.
I have tried a few internet searches and there is not much useful data that I could find.
Any help would be welcome.

Rocket Reviews has a review for The Launch Pad AIM-7 Sparrow. Rocket Reviews also has a Rocksim file. Unfortunately, The Launch Pad is now out of business.

There is a lot of Sparrow stuff out there that can be found with Google. Peter Alway has drawings in one of his books for the Sparrow III AIM-7E. I have the book. It is a good read.

The Navy had an early version of the Sparrow called SparoAir 2 it was a 2 staged air launched
sounding rocket . Below is the youtube link to a video I got from the US Archives that shows the
SparoAir 2
