My 6 Weapon groups for USN Vietnam Era Skyraiders

Hey group, I've been messing with my weapons groups, weight and diameter limits in an attempt to duplicate the ordinance load outs the Navy used on A-1H and Js in the Vietnam Conflict.

It appears most loads where symmetrical. Heavy to lighter inboard to outboard. Large diameter weps like LAU-3s and BLU-10s (Fire Eye ?) were mounted on the outer wing pylons alternately. Although the outer wing pylons , 1-12 had a 500 pound limit 500 lb bombs and 500 lb Snakeyes ( More then 500 lbs in Data ini ) were mounted on every other pylon also. Sometimes a 250 lb was placed in between the 500s or LAU-3s but this tweak doesn't support that and to cover all loadouts I've seen in pictures we would need at least 9 weapons groups and an Air Force Sandy Low Lead would need more. I left Gun pods on stations 6 & 7, Group 4 for fun. While trying to cover most cases I'm probably barely covering only half of all the loads on piactures

Here a few that this does support.

 

Early conflict. HVARs outside, 250s and large Nape inboard. We need the red 1000lb nape tho.

SAR, HU-16 Escort. With or without bombs.

Toilet Bomb on station 12 but no joy for the rest of the loadout. When somebody builds us some AN M-57A1 & AN M-64A1 cone tails I'll do a tweak for the Sani Flush.
