Great additional info! 

One question regarding this :

 

These missiles are jettissond from the pylon and then start their entines, no?

How do they power away from the high subsonic Bucc only with the turbine? Don't they have any booster for this? Or do the fall behind the launch plane? Can't imagine this very ideal for low level lauches....

Thanks!!/Werner
