T-2 and F-1 countermeasures pods and more weaponry still not added since their introductions

Eh, depending on the standard of course, but the vast majority of the time the casings and squib charge are virtually identical between flares and chaff. So there’s not really anything stopping you from putting flares in a chaff pod all things considered

It couldn’t use 4 missiles according to fire control manual.
FS-T2-Kai and T-2 is two different planes which can’t be mixed

yeah i know about that but it would be much better by having actual CM and not having to rely on something that sometimes would work.

I definitely run a rocket pod on my T-2/F-1 as well as some impromptu flares. I also use the Hydras on the F104J lol.

They arent as good as regular flares, but they’re better than nothing
