The sources I have listed is in the post…

Not only that, this is the last model, the OV-10D+, which had the ability to use laser guided APKWS (As of operation desert storm), if it can use laser guided munitions, it would be a literal joke it didn’t have CCIP.

the OV-10D still uses the same gunsight that the OV-10A uses, its all manually adjusted with manual depression of the gunsight according to weapon release charts:

the charts look like this:

EDIT:

also Id like to note that no, OV-10D+ is not cleared for APKWS
you would need the OV-10G+ for that

So it essentially doesn’t have a computer, but the FLIR and sight system acts as one?

I defintely would like an AIM-9B during mixed battles.

The configurations I saw online says the model could’ve carried such missiles.

+1 for USA and Israel.

Don’t know if this was posted, but it carried the AIM-9L/M in Desert Storm

I’ve heard enough, put this at 8.3 ARB

In the 90s, Colombia acquired 24 OV-10A Bronco that were later modernized to the OV-10D standard. They played a counterinsurgency role and are legendary in the FAC. They were retired until 2015. I would like to see them in the game in the Israeli TT withthe Colombian Skin.

do they carry AIM-9D’s?

yes

no

the gunsight is manually operated
so the pilot sets it up according to the release charts and fires the rockets like that

like any other rocket armed plane without CCIP

I know, I have the SAC. I was asking them sarcastically if the AH-1 carries AIM-9D (the answer to that is no)

The USMC variants should be able to on the underwing stations.

not the helicopter, I made a typo meant the A1H “skyraider”

A Sky-raider was one of the test vehicles used for the “Heat Homing Rocket” / AIM-9A, so technically sort of, as i couldn’t say that it was entirely replaced before work began on the AIM-9C /-9D.
