Definitely can’t be an odd number as the Eurofighter’s pylons are symmetrical with the exception of the central one which is reserved for fuel tanks and targeting pods.
From the Eurofighter thread the theoretical maximum is 8, however in practise its usually 4 plus 2 SRAAM’s or 6 plus 2 SRAAM’s.
The eurofighter magazine is a concept of what it might look like supporting theoretical future stealth aircraft in a missile bus configuration but as of right now dual pylons don’t exist for Meteor only from Brimstone and ASRAAM.
No but seriously if they add the Canadian ADATS to fill in the holes. Then I’m sure it’s not to far fetched for the CF-18 to be added to Britain to fill in the holes.
I’m not performing at all with it lol, after having early APDS shatter 75% of the time I decided to focus on more enjoyable tanks instead and haven’t really looked back
