Israeli Weasels 1982

Check out the TW lighting F.1 data.ini but I may have steered you wrong now that I think about it

My only suggestion is instead of a fake fuel tank use a fake rocket pod with no rockets. This way your pylons will stay when you jettison your fuel tanks (ctrl-d) but jettison when you jettison all your air-to-ground ordnance (ctrl-j). By being empty the AI won't try and use them as an actual rocket pod.

Good catch I will upload a fix later today, in the meantime just move 'Kurnass' and 'Kurnass_78' folders from the 'weapons' folder to the 'decals' folder. Let it over ride.

A lot will also depend on how the pylons are structured in the .lod in terms of rails etc. PM me a working copy and I'll have a look at the model and I'll see what I can do

There is a away you can have the pylons jettisonable which I have done for my F-86 Sabres. Set the pylon nodes up as fake fuel tanks or a rocket pods with no rockets in it. Use station specific codes etc.

That's what I thought, then mues lod viewer gives you the exact coordinates just like any other part of the .lod?

Are you talking about decals on drop tanks that are not part of the .lod?

F-4E IAF Yom Kippur pack uploading now....

Anyone know if the AIM-7 used by the Kurnass in 1973 was the standard E model or the E-2 model? The stock TW loadout.ini has the AIM-7E-2 but the stock Yom Kippur campaign has the AIM-7E listed for the F-4E Kurnass squadrons. Google hasn't helped me thus far....

Thanks mate here is the page from the section from the book that mentions the Rockeyes: "The end of the War of Attrition on 7 August 1970 enabled the IDF/AF to expand its Kurnass force, and No 119 Sqn formally became the third unit to operate the type at Tel Nof on 29 October. New tactics and weapons were introduced to counter the Egyptian air defence challenge, including the AGM-45 Shrike anti-radiation missile (ARM) and the Mk 20 Rockeye II cluster bomb unit (CBU). "

Any one out there got some good intell on actuall Yom Kippur weapon loadouts? I have this web site: https://www.fresh.co.il/vBulletin/showthread.php?t=580055#post4438309 And this book to go by: Two weapons that are mentioned but I can not find any pictures on the actuall loadout configuration are AGM -45 Shrike and Rockeye
