Depend, if you wonder for conventional bomb, then basicly the same, hardpoint drop mechanism is not so hard to modify.
But with the Chinese, they crack J-11 firmware to arm with PL-x series so if they want, they can.
Sure, I have two nice articles on F-16 departures

The monitor on the (non-SMT) Migs is locked to copying the HUD now?
Yeah I noticed this, not sure if it’s a bug or intentional
Apperently extra countermeasures on SMT has been changed from Larger Caliber to normal one.
Is this true or just a statcard bug?
50mm
I know its 50MM irl which should be Large Caliber in game.
Either its a statcard bug or flares did get nerfed.
Report it
I need make sure if its just a statcard bug or real one, otherwise report will not be accepted.
Since i cant access to the game files someone needs to confirm it for me.
Not a bug. They updated the HUD for SIM players, which now works fully for using the radar.
So the screen is now its historical HUD repeater.

50mm flares are standard, not large
You sure about that? As far i as know 26mm’s are standart ones.
<50 is standard, only “small” are BOL pods.
Then there is nothing wrong about current SMT’s flare size.
Should’ve been standart from the start in that case.
So it was fixed, cool
Think the main takeaway from this is there should be more than just “small”, “standard” and “large” countermeasures.
Idc, system works well enough. There are bigger issues with the detection range of IR missiles and heat signatures in general.

It’s apparently some weird area and quantity computation; instead of based off chemical composition.
The M206 as used by the ALE-40 / 45 / 47 (via MJU-11 Magazine w/ 30 CM per dispenser) is an 1" * 1" cartridge [2.54 * 2.54cm]
The MJU-7 as used by the ALE-40 / -45 / -47 (Via MJU-12 Magazine w/ 15 CM per dispenser) is an 2" * 1" cartridge [5.08 * 2.54 cm ].
The Alternate MJU-10 (via the MJU-17 Magazine w/ 6 CM per dispenser) is a 2" * 2" (5.08^2) and can be loaded into the ALE-45 or -47.
The latter of which should qualify for the Large caliber due to having 2580mm^2 of surface area, though it would be a massive tradeoff due to the lost quantity.
weights, sizes and compatibility can be found on the proceeding pages, though it only lists USAF airframes.
