Australian & New Zealand Aviation Sub Tree

I am pretty sure that Australian naval aircrew operated the fairey firefly on HMAS Melbourne and Sydney during the Korean war in independent RAN squadrons.

HMAS Sydney III had 816 and 817 Squadrons operating 50 of the AS.5/AS.6 variant. Although I believe this is already in the tree.

Heres some photos of them operating from HMAS Sydney from the sea power website:

As @Ogaly_Bogaly has pointed out, I have already got a Firefly in the tech tree. The Article XV squadron aircraft were others, like the Hurricane, or the Gladiator.

I added the additional A-4K for New Zealand as a premium.
Now, does anyone happen to have more detailed information on the secondary weapons of a GAF Nomad? It says 6 hardpoints, 500lb each, for rocket pods and 7.62mm miniguns. Does anyone have specifics of what can go on each hardpoint? A flight manual or something? As I said earlier, I am thinking about just adding some extra stuff even if it’s a little whacky or redundant, and I’d like to start with the Nomad but I can’t find definitive proof of the weaponry.
