it looks like that it is very real , i would not dare to post a what if weaon here although it is not very effective , to hit a target with an ungided missile is quite difficult and over a distance from 10-20 km i would say it is impossible i set the weapon as CGR , because of game limitations , but to get a hit you have to get the gunsight exactly to the target otherwise the rocket will fail -

this Yasser rocket must be one of the largest unguided rockets ever made for use from a aircraft Yasser rocket , AIM-23 rocket motor + M117 bomb AGM-379/20 it uses the M117 bomb as well -
What's the major difference between pics and which one is correct?

i have to correct me , the F-4 FG.1 (and i assume as well the FG.2) are not able to carry AIM-7 on pylons , i just got the weapons manual for the FG.1 and there is only the 4 fuselage bays for AIM-7 / Skyflash and in all F-4C/D/E/F/G weapons delivery manuals are only the 4 fuselage bays for AIM-7 , what is logical because the USAF does not use the Navy pylon and therfor this aircraft are not able to launch any AIM-7 , the only ever exception was the RAAF -

it is getting even better than this i got info from KillerBee (he worked on F-4´s) that the F-4´s are suppose to be able to carry 8 AIM-7 what would mean that the outer wingstation are wired as well for the AIM-7 but it never was used by the Navy or the USAF , the wing-pylon AIM-7 wiring was used for the AGM-45 and AGM-88 that would explain why the RAAF F-4E could carry AIM-7 on the wing pylon by just changing the standard pylon to the Navy one , and F-4´s could carry the AGM-45 and AGM-88 on the inner and the outer wingstations so basicaly non of the F-4´s lost there capability to launch AIM-7 from wing pylons it just was never used -

not only the pylon , there is a general problem with the Aircraft model , i had to shorten the pylons a bit on the hard wing F-4´s because of collision problems with the leading edge actuator thats why the position of the AIM-7 is a bit to much to the rear on the RAAF F-4E´s and the F-4J / N i´m currently working on (i may not include the AIM-7 option for the F-4J / N) The AIM-7 dimensions are correct i took them from original drawings -

only few Navy pylons are delivered to the RAAF , the Navy pylon was used for Air to Air missions and missile test only but this missions are very rare the loadout in your picture was on a weapon evaluation test flight , there are 2 wings removed from the AIM-7 for the mounting of the AIM-9 here is the only picture i have of a F-4 with 6 Sparrows -

ravenclaw_007 replied to streakeagle's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
as for the 6 Sparrows , the RAAF leased there F-4E for just 2 years and returned them back to the US and used them mostly in AG , this F-4´s are able to carry the 6 sparrows by just attaching the Navy-pylon , with out any rewiring to my knowledge , so why should all other Navy F-4´s not be able to do the same ???? i rather think that with the AIM-9G around it was no longer practical to use AIM-7 on this pylons and 4 x AIM-7 + 4 x AIM-9 are a better choice than 6 AIM-7 only and the only Navy pylons with out the launch rail i have seen sofar are on UK F-4M , the US Navy even used the Aim-7 launch rail pylons on there F-4S (maybe only to attach the bomb adapter that would be a possible reason) absolutley certainty about this issue you can only have if you get a copy of the NAVAIR 1-245FDB-1T and the Flight Manual Supplement section VIII , i will get soon a copy of the weapon system manual for the F-4 FG.1 may be i will find something there -

i have the pylons and the wings finish and after i´m done with the F-4E´s i will make the F-4B/J/N/S i´m waiting for some manuals and more books so i can start the work , unfortunatly the NAVAIR 1-245FDB-1T and the Flight Manual Supplement section VIII are not available if somebody can get a copy of those that would be great -

the lower panel is from a F-4E the one for the F-4J/N/S look totaly different i have been looking for a explanation quite some time now but i never found one , all the Navy/ Marines F-4 used the same pylon ( some have the launchrail removed ) and would be able to carry the a AIM-7 and even the weaponspanel is not realy showing if they are able to carry or not maybe if i get the F-4B / J / N manuals i will get some answer to it -

i think the TW F-4´s dont have the option you have to make some Data_ini editing like Streakeagle did -

ravenclaw_007 replied to streakeagle's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
i´m not sure about it , this pylon type where used on all Navy F-4´s and the F-4K / M did use the same pylons , so it is only the wiring that could make a difference but why would they remove the abilty to carry the AIM-7 on the inner pylons -

ravenclaw_007 replied to streakeagle's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
actualy there is not realy any adapter to carry a AIM-7 , the pylon is the launch rail the Navy pylon with launch rail and here the navy pylon on a RAAF F-4E with a AIM-7E to carry a bomb , RP or a bomb-rack a special adapter was mounted on to the launch rail -
