WHY GAIJIN, ARE THE MISSLES ON THE F16CM POBIT, COLORED DIFFERENTLY, THEN THOSE ON THE F15 GOLDEN EAGLE???
120C should be Blue
120B should be green
120D should be Orange
The colors are simply to differentiate them
Missile icon colouring follow a specific rule; by how ‘good’ it is or their position in the modification rank or use (anti-radiation missiles as example, Kh-31P L-110 family):
In later vehicles, missiles of the same type, or being too similar (same mechanic or appearence) follows a, somewhat, similar logic:
- Red for base missile;
- Green for improved missile;
- Blue for advanced missile (or a better improved missile);
- Yellow for later advanced missile,

Theres also a white one.
TBF, its supposed to be like that, but there are just multiple cases where its just, not, like on late C hornets 7Ps are yellow, while C-5 amraams are only blue. And then on super hornets D amramms end up with red for some reason.
I’m pretty sure its cause there supposed to be some cohesiveness across different aircraft of the same airframe, but it just makes it a bit more wonky.
