Gotcha, from what you posted it looks like it could carry up to six AMRAAMs, hypothetically.
It could get more if they (also) decide to include the trialed / mock-up dual rail config, though I don’t think that was ever fitted to an F-14D.
I mean they did give the Su-27SM Dual pylons, which I can’t even find a pic of it using irl, so.-
Who knows, it’s up to Gaijin in the end.

(mock-up) pylons
They gave the Su-27SM dual pylons because of a photograph of service Su-27SM.
A test bed based on an F-14A is not a service F-14A or F-14D.
No…
Only photo of dual R-77 mount is… Su-35S. Which has more space between engines.
Current model is wrong btw

I thought that was only for Su-35S and Su-27SM3

not a Su-27SM but a Su-35S
you can see it having downwards dispensing flares in the tail which is only found on the Su-35S ontop of it having 2 more wing pylons than the Su-27
Su-27SM3 didnt get the dual pylons either, but 2 extra wing pylons which would amount to the same amount of missiles carried as a whole
my theory is that gaijin wanted to turn the Su-27SM into the SM3 but didnt want to bother changing the 3D model for the 2 extra wing pylons, so they just gave it double pylons

Oh, Thanks. I knew the SM3 carried more I just didn’t know where.
Damn, So we have another Franken plane?

yes exactly
the upgraded engine we have on the 27SM were only mounted in 5 - 10 27SM1 as an upgrade, while the 27SM3 had them from the factory

I would like to see D model never gets AMRAAMs and just buff AIM54s irl level.
AIM-54s makes F-14 what it is.
Well
Even if added - it gonna be long - aim-54 hand, mid - aim-120
Why not
