Has this been resolved?
Other photo. Was at Le Bourget 1987 it seems.
bigger version
I can’t really tell what bombs they are meant to be. But they look like they have SAMP logo on them
Ed:- and another photo from Le Bourget '87 that happens to have the ZH200’s Aden 25 in frame

Ed2:- Triple racked bombs are likely 125kg SAMP BL-61

Hopefully it will be resolved soon, if it hasn’t already been.

Gotta love Skyflash tracking a random Mirage IIIS 15km away and outside my radar illumination beam instead of the rapidly approaching F-5E lmao
To say I was confused is a mild understatement

is it just SRC PD or SRC PD HDN?
Scampton 1989 (Red Arrows 25th anniversary air show) ZH200 appeared with a significantly larger bulge where the gun pack is fitted
Any ideas why? Looks like it might have only been on the port side

even better !
The HDN mode is a pain in the butt
Skyflash one again having a normal one. Just to check that I’m not going insane the Radar illumatior is the green cone right? Or is that wider? I just wish Skyflash would actually target the guy flying directly towards me aaaaaaaaaaa

For Radar modes the RDA has:
- SRC [20 x 7, 60 x 14, 120 x 7] @ [19, 37, 74, 148]km
- SRC PD [20 x 7, 60 x 14, 120 x 7] @ [19, 37, 74, 148]km
- SRC SEA [20 x 7, 60 x 14, 120 x 7] @ [19, 37, 74, 148]km
- ACM [7 x 8, 10 x 40, 20 x 19] @ 19km
that is pretty nice tbh for an 11.3 with 2 average missiles.

No ground modes? Sadge.

That’s good, at least that.
( I still have zero idea of how I’m going to stock grind the RDA, stock it looks like complete garbage)

I’ll admit I GEd Skyflashes (and 9Ls + New Boosters + G-Suit to get there)
Didn’t want to go through the Base 200 stock grind again :/

ZJ201 with what look like expended LAU-5002 (6x CRV-7) rocket pods (Frangible Forward Fairing shot out). And in plain grey without the black Hawk 200 branding, or blue camo overpaint.
Looking back at a pic AblativeKitten posted of Malaysia’s Hawk 208, it seems they also operated them with 19x CRV-7 LAU-5003 launcher in addition to FZ rockets using LAU-51 and LAU-32
The black arming device on the side is quite distinctive for CRV-7 launchers compared to other rocket pods (it’s on the opposite side on LAU-5002, so can’t see it above), and this one has Magellan’s “Advanced Forward Fairing” for the LAU-5003 on the ground behind it

Took 58 battles of mostly air combat, my stats say 77 air kills, but that includes a non insignificant amount of AI kills from expending extra 9Ls before RTBing (Edit: Using the skin progress bar I’m sat at 71 player kills, which gives a KD of 1.65). Apart from 9Ls being 9Ls and Skyflashes occasionally having a moment it was pretty fun!! Did miss a gun from time to time though…
Full disclosure I did GE Skyflashes, 9Ls, New Boosters, & G-suit

I was wondering if it was for the Aden 30, but I dont know how much bigger they are compared to the 25

Would indeed be funny if the bulge was necessary for the aden 30, kinda force gaijins hand a little xD
