I think it was mentioned before, but typically the Sidewinders are carried in pairs on one pylon, usually outboard. The jammer pod is opposite.

And there is a centerline station as well, BTW. But this is typically loaded out with a large drop tank for ferrying. For realism purposes, it's empty in combat. It's definately a "wet" station, to be loaded with aux. fuel tanks.

But,Im unsure as to whether it can be loaded with weapons. I think it can. Global security. org states three underfuselage weapon stations, indicating the centerline station as well.

For giggles, you could place the jammer, here, another Maverick, or perhaps a Mk82, or FFAR pod. The FFAR makes the most sense.

The A-10 is a capable dumb-bomb truck, but using Snakeyes and Slicks in a high threat battlefield with AA and MANPADS is very dangerous for Warthogs. This is work typically done by fast movers, like the F-16. In recent combat they would ususally be loaded out with cluster munitions, in keeping with the CAS mission. These days, it's most often the CBU-87B.

Anyway, I'm just trying to help. And I've seen many of these things close up. I used to live on an A-10 base, at that time the home of the 23rd Fighter Group/74th Fighter Squadron, AKA the Flying Tigers.

Yea i used to have a .jpeg of the different loadouts on the pylons that would have proved usefull in this situation.

i think im gona move the sidewinders on 1 pod and ill put that thingamabob on too. kinda like this

[FerretFangs 0]

Yep, that's how it should look. Now about those LGB's....

Could you make one load out with CBU's instead? The F/A-18 pack has some good ones, as does Footmunch's F-15E and F-16 pack. Very effective, fun, and realistic.

Looking good! Keep up the good work!

Oh, and BTW, I've got a great .WAV of the GAU-12 firing. Nice and LOUD. Sounds like a cross between a giant two stroke engine, and a god farting. Good stuff. I remeber when I was a kid you could hear it from miles away when they were chewing up targets on the range. BuuuRRRRAAAAAHHHHP!

you know i suggested this before and i dont know if its feezable

but look into that whole Mcar deal and see if there isnt a way we can finnaly cross weapon loadouts. like have bombs and missels. have sidewinders, mavericks, and some LGBs

afaik its still "impossible" to combine different types of missels and bombs. i havnt seen a plane released with both A2A, A2G, and bombs all on a single aircraft

Better look at footmunch's planes then. 'Cause he does it with his Strike Eagle and it works very well.

And Hawk's Ka-50 Hokum, it has interchangable weapons.

Looking nice there oyman

About cluster bombs... it'd be nice to have them, but for them to work properly you'd have to fly at a decent altitude, probably at least 150m, and how many of us would fly an A-10 that high

I think OFP needs better simulation for somehow flying a plane up at a few thousand feet or higher since that's how high most of em fly.

ok, i just need to do 2 more things compress it into a pbo which might take a hour to do (inq cockpit textures) and upload it somewhere

Great news .

if you can email it to me i might be able to temp host it for awhile assuming its under 10 megs

[oyman 0]

its around 6.50 mb with compression and stuff (grown from 617kb) doh i need to write a readme

[whistlepig 0]

I hate to ask, but will anyway,

Can we still expect its arrival tonight, or will it be this weekend sometime? (Just wondering if I need to go ahead and stay up half the night awaiting the Hawgs arrival!)

im having problems getting it uploaded at ofpec but someone setting up some mirrors right now...

[whistlepig 0]

Well, there went my night then. Another night that my wife will be without her husband due to Flashpoint

Now, awaiting its arrival!

thanks for the dl link Pappy Boyington

[Heatseeker 0]

Hmm, i dont have Inq's A10 i think, and i got an extra file called Oy_flare.pbo or something like that, wouldnt it be more convenient to have just one pbo file .

[Pappy Boyington 0]

if you dont have/want INQ's A10 then dont install the A10i

the flare thingy. . . well that SHOULD be obvious

[Heatseeker 0]

if you dont have/want INQ's A10 then dont install the A10i

Are those my only options , or can i install inq's A10 and then A10i? Please? ...
