you know,  i understand some of the things ducking autocorrect does. but after the latest update my phone loves to swap numbers around,  and the forced corrections seem to be getting more arbitrary. but the numbers bit really baffles me

i've seen things that said it could, but have never heard of it actually carrying them

for that matter, being the fleets heavy striker, you rarely see rocket pod on them (although i have seen pics of that)

I knew I got it somewhere in my 'database'

although here on early E somewhere '76-78

help here - what do you see 152928 or 152929  vertical stabilizer?

while rocket pods were quite common on land-based Marine tadpoles in Vietnam.

i see 29,  but other eyes and screens may see different. that one is a b... of a pic

and the Marines would carry them in Nam, but they also ran a much different mission than the Navy at the time. frankly, im surprised theres tanks on the one in your pic rather than more ordinance

I seriously hope not. Pick a number and if you're wrong, fix it.

doesn't 

http://www.gonavy.jp/

have a listing for that unit in that time frame, given that we know the CVW and squadron?

[+Cliff7600 1,144]

I searched just for fun and I found this :

VA-75 / CVW-3 / CV-60 (?)

That is interesting. This seems to be a picture from a training flight, proving the crews were trained into gunpod ground attacks with the A-6. What type is the gunpod and is it available as a stock weapon, or in any of the weapons packs?

it is A Mk4 gun pod , i have one in work but that needs some time to finish

[Wrench 9,565]

it's also a stock item in the game, iirc, the B & J are "allowed" to carry it (so is the Scooter)

We all know that Ravenclaw's will be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better!

[+yakarov79 10,595]

Felt the same...

[+Soulfreak 6,353]

Great improvements guys!

[+GKABS 8,387]

I resize the pilot. if you see the pilot from far they look small but when you get closer they look perfect I think.
