Dual ECM or AGM-45 Pylons

[+CSomers611 9]

I've been search and haven't found it yet, was wondering if anyone has made dual pylons for the F-105's?

I would like to tinker around a bit like groundcrews did and be able to have the option for either dual ECM pods or a dual loadout of AGM-45's on the F-105F even if it's for just playing around the ranges of the SWUSA.

I would be interested in learning how to do this myself if anyone is willing to walk me through how to do it.

racktype=BRU57, iirc  There's a dual launcher rack in one of the old weapons packs (1stGen)

I did it 15+ years ago for WoV; can't remember now.

 

EDIT _-- look for "2ARM" in a late model weapons pack (maybe the gunny pak???)

the rack is a triple launcher rack for early FFAR pods , i dont have the AN/ALQ-87 finish yet so i used the AN/ALQ-71 pod instead , i have to check the picture above to find out how the attached the ECM-pods to the rack as soon as i have figured out how they did it i can do this twin ecm-pod rack 

triple FFAR pod assembly

twin AN/ALQ-71 ecm pod assembly

found an other picture of the twin ecm-pod assembly 

and an other version with 2 AN/ALQ-87 on a MER-rack for the C/AC-130

 

as soon as i´m done with the AN/ALQ-87 i can will do this 2 twin ecm-pod assembly`s , one reason more to finish this ecm-pod

awesome!!

does that have to be built as a two pod model or are they loading that way on the MERs through ini dancing?

[+ravenclaw_007 7,633]

i´m afraid the only way would be a 2 pod model

I haven't located the 2ARM in anything yet though I've downloaded quite a few, just apparently not the correct one!

I think the class name for dual ARM launchers is '2AR'.

No, it's for dual rail AAMs, radar-guided type per my Super Hornet data.ini

I honestly don't ever recall a dual-rail ARM launcher in the game. Maybe in WoX, but this is the first I heard it existing since SF2 came out.

Yeah,and iirc, there aren't even ARM specific launcher pylons, which forces me to use the "set as fuel tank" pylons for aircraft that aren't modeled with LAU-118.

Yeah usually the sub pylons are built into the model, which affects loadouts sometimes, but yeah I didn't know you did that.
