Nice model!

The blue-nosed missile is an Aerospatiale AS-30L laser-guided ASM. Think of it as a big laser-Maverick. It'd be guided by the pod on the centreline, which is a French ATLIS II.

It looks a bit odd to see an RAF Jaguar with these French weapons, but then if the RAF had gone for the same, simpler Jag that the French did (as modelled), there might have been more common weapond development, and anyway, the RAF did use the earlier radio-command version of the AS-30 on Canberras.
