A10c targeting pod and agm65

for no reason you can’t put agm65D next to targeting pod
there is a lot of space between them but you just can’t do it for no reason, it is just useless nerf for a10c
make it realistic and enable this option

This is intended. In the A-10C manual, it says that the lightning pod cannot be adjacent to triple launcher pylon. I’m not sure why that’s the case.

However, a recent test showed that the A-10C can do it but with the Sniper ATP.

There is a work around however I’m not sure if it has been patched.

But yeah, the A-10C sucks though (for GRB). You’ll have more fun in the harrier or the F-111f.

I dont know. Kind of fun to spam out glide bombs and watch their spaa waste all of their ammo shooting them down

Evidence that the A-10C can carry 6 AGM-65Ds with laser pods but gaijin has nerfed them

This photo was denied as evidence on the basis that the Mavericks loaded were inert/ only for training purposes based on the blue stripes on the missile.

Kinda odd to train with an otherwise not allowed loadout however, I feel maybe they found that it was fine to load Mavericks on LAU-88 next to the Litening anyway and just that the manual is a bit outdated. With a Sniper pod it was evidently fine, so perhaps they reevaluated the Litening as well. Seems like a weird oversight too if it was done by accident, because they didn’t load the inner rails either, which is normally done to prevent scorch marks/damage or whatever to the landing gear pods.

Anyways there’s still a workaround in game, not sure how long it will take for Gaijin to patch it (succesfully).

The thing is the verbage is very specific.

The only place on the LAU-88 that cannot be loaded is the outboard rack.

There is no reason the A-10C shouldn’t be able to carry 5x AGM-65Ds and the Litening TGP.

Of course this is entirely irrelevant as the jet should be carrying the Sniper Targeting Pod and there is no restriction on the outboard rack at all for 6x AGM-65Ds.
