As to why it happens, I'm no Aviation Ordnanceman (AO) but I would think it would be a malfunction within the pylon or the ordnanceman who mounted it made a mistake. Trust me. There's a lot of explaining to do when your AIM-9 decides to take a drink! I've also seen a gas cap fly off of an external tank after catching a wire spraying JP-5 (fuel) right in front of the starboard intake. Fuel goes into intake... and you've got an AIRCRAFT FIRE! Ahhh yes, nothing like being paid an E-4's salary while making sure the sidewinders, sparrows, and phoenix missiles don't cook off.... You'll never hear about THIS fun stuff at the recruiter's office!
