| Re: A-7 Corsair II Question
Any way is fine it appears---it's just that having the bombs on the outboard side of the MER is more common. There's pics of both configurations---there's just a LOT more pics of them outboard. (Interestingly, I've also found pics of A-7's carrying Shrike missiles on the inner pylons, and bombs on the outer ones--opposite of any pic of Century's)
Having them inboard AND outboard (a fully loaded MER) isn't very common due to sheer weight and drag---A-6's don't mind much, but the smaller A-7 starts having issues with THAT many bombs.
I do wish Century gives us some more variety soon. The F-14 came with enough weapons to do MANY different configurations, and 2 whole different weapon sets. The A-7 seems to have far fewer options (drop tanks or not, that's about it), and every release is the same. Where's the Rockeyes? Mk83's? Mk84's? |
