Obscure or fake German AAM

[Petrus]

Here you've got a picture from https://www.deviantart.com/nino39/art/Luftwaffe-ME-1000-758308083. As you may see it is an alternate universe fighter from the late 1960s in the III Reich Luftwaffe markings. Obviously it is a quite decent drawing of the HA-300 albeit with some additions. Namely there is a gun port and a drop tank, which the actual (i.e. prototype) HA-300 lacked, while under the wing there is an air-to-air missile.
The missile doesn't resemble anything I know. So I wonder whether it is a pure invention of the picture's author or rather he/she used a might-have-been missile developed sometime in the 1960s. Such a near-real missile would have been German, I suppose, as if the AU Luftwaffe in 1967 had used German aircraft they would have used German missiles too.

Can anyone here recognise the missile?

Hm...

A very strange-looking missile; almost as it have a booster. Could it possibly be that author simply do not knew exactly what he doing?

I've asked him, will post the answer if he answers.

There are two missiles under the wing, one partially obscuring the other. If they are not real projects, they are clearly inspired by the Sea Skua.

Hm, there is no separation line at all. So I doubt that is an explanation.

 

[Grzesio]

Are you serious?
Don't you see a second homing head immediately behind forward wings (i.e. wings of the inner missile)? And a lower fin of the inner missile partially protruding under the fuselage of the outer missile, just forward of its lower wing?
And two launchers under the wing?

 

[Dilandu]

Frankly, no.

 

[Jemiba]

Grzesio is right, I think, that's here is one of the two missiles under the left wing.



Perhaps not meant as an AAM ...

You're quite right indeed, appatently I must have overlooked the details. Frankly I haven't looked there carefully enough, for I assumed that under each wing there is space only for one hardpoint, as the HA-300's wingspan was 5.84 m (each wing's span was around 2+ m). That the drawing's author put there two hardpoints indicates rather clearly that the missile cannot be a real thing. It has also ridiculous proportions being short (approx. 2.25 m) and fat (appox. 0.25 m).

As for the real HA-300 I suspect it was to carry missiles (Sidewinders of course) not under wings but at wing-tip rails. Such an arrangment was used by Messerschmitt in the VJ-101B design (see the drawing attached hereto, also https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/ewr-vj-101c-d-e-vtol-fighter-projects.964/#post-116566), which had a new fuselage housing eight engines but its wings were almost identical to those of the HA-300. The VJ-101B sports missiles also under its fuselage, but personally I doubt that the HA-300 would have carried missiles in that manner, as its fuselage was much narrower than that of the VJ-101B, which left no space for missile rails under intakes.

Ah, no I see it.

I'm glad, everyone agrees.
