SF2E A-10A Loadout Mod Readme

 

by Malibu43

 

This mod contains some alternative loadouts for the two A-10A variants in SF2E, as well as a modified LAU-88 rack that allows 2 AGM-65's to be carried vs 3 (Based on images and forums I've read through, this seems to be more accurate. From what I understand, A-10's are never loaded with 3 AGM-65's on one rack). In addition to hopefully being a little more accurate, it also makes CAS a little more fun as it will require you to use something other than guided, stand-off weapons to complete the mission (they put that big gun on the front for a reason!). Strike, Recon, and SEAD loadouts have been tweaked as well.

 

New loadouts are as follows:

 

Attack:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

4 x AGM-65

4 x MK20

 

Strike:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

2 x AGM-65

4 x MK82

 

SEAD:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

4 x AGM-65

4 x CBU-24B

 

Anti-ship:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

2 x MK84

 

FAC:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

2 x LAU-32A

 

Recon:

2 x AIM-9

1 x ALQ-131

2 x LAU-32A

2 x AGM-65

2 x MK82

2 x CBU-24B

 

 

1. Requirements:

 

- SF2E

- You have the LAU-32A rocket pod installed (included in Nato Fighters 4+). If you don't have the LAU-32A installed, you can do a find and replace for "LAU_32A" in both of the included loadout files and replace that with "LAU-3A", which is a stock weapon.

 

2. Installation:

 

a. Extract the contents of this .rar file somewhere temporary.

b. Drop the folder named "2_LAU-88A" into *SF2E Mod Folder*/Objects/Weapons

c. Drop the two *_loadout.ini files into their respective aircraft folders (A-10A, A-10A_78) in the *SF2E Mod Folder*/Objects/Aircraft directory.

 

3. Enjoy!

This mod may not be used in any payware. It can be used for free as long as appropriate credit is given.

 

Thanks,

Note: updated 9-29-10 to correct LAU-32A entries.

Note: updated again on 9-30 to correct... LAU-32A entries

Note: updated 3-13-11 to correct LAU-32A entries and change some loadouts

Note: updated 7-8-11 to correct an error in naming the new LAU-88 rack. Don't know how that wasn't missed before...

Note: Jeez.. Updated 7/11/11 to account for a change with the July '11 patch.

will trhe 2_LAU88 work on Phantoms too? they never carried 3 per rack due to drag concerns, yet usually carried 4 to maximize warload as much as they could.

 

[+malibu43 142]

Yes, it should work on any aircraft that could carry the regular LAU88.

[+malibu43 142]

If someone is using this, can you confirm whether or not LAU-32's are showing up on the default Attack, SEAD, and Recon loadouts? I seem to be having some issues all of a sudden...?

 

*edit* - OK. I apparently set these loadouts up at some point using a weapon named "LAU_32A", and in NF4+ the weapon is named "LAU-32A".

 

If you have already installed this, a quick find/replace in both the loadout.ini files should fix it. I'll update the download shortly.

Sorry folks. The original LAU_32A entries were correct.

 

If you followed my earlier advice, you can either re-download the files and drop those in, or do a find change and switch things back to LAU_32A.

 

Sorry again for the confusion.
