ok, so, I’ve made an attempt/attempting on doing so by calling out 2 other aircraft of the same time period with the same ejector racks. That being TER-9/A on the A-10C and AV-8B, of which both have a 3x GBU-12 as an option, with the rack itself already on the aircraft itself when using a 3 pair of just basic MK 82 500lbs bombs. it haven’t been closed but i feel like I’ve hit a wall with what i can do/what i can find so i am reaching out to the community to see if y’all would be willing to assist in this
Link the bug report
Here, friend. Hope these help.
The PDF pamphlet for the product explicitly states F-16 usage. Consider if they won’t accept the TER9/A that you may be able to also report for MER usage.

Spent the last hourish looking for triple GBU-12s mounted on the TERs and it was never cleared by the USAF. If you find an operations manual it says 3 GBU-12s are not certified to be mounted while carrying wing tanks. That implies that it could without the wing tanks, but you’ll probably never find a real world source for that. So for the GBU-12s, you may very well be S.O.L.
However! Because of the TER being perfectly capable of it, the F16 being certified to carry the load structurally. You could argue “technical feasibility” which has been used by Gaijin to make changes before. That said, your current report is most likely dead because of pic source requirements, etc.
If you made a separate reports for the “technical feasibility” to carry the triple GBU-12s on a TER pylon (even if explicitly without the ability to carry wing tanks) that would maybe be easier to get the sources. Still wouldn’t hold my breath though.
either way even if it just swaps the rack out from the one the navy uses for the TER-9 i’ll be somewhat happy
alright, thank you, it has been updated
