Why don't we have an indicator on F106 Missile Bay just like Bombers?

That [open] [close] one, why don’t we have it? Does it worth a suggestion/ issue?

In the top left?

Yeah, probably an oversight, could try a bug report for it. See where that goes

Yep. And it’s not there for F8U with belly FFAR too. I don’t have the vautour’s ffar so idk if vautour has one when there’s rockets instead of bombs in the bay.

Lightning F53s rocket pod bays need be toggled but have it in the top left either. So probably a case of a mechanic originally made for WW2 bombers and never updated for other weapon types in bomb bays.

For most, I dont think that is necessarily all that big of an issue, but with the F-106, yeah, definetly would be useful

Me binding X to both missile lock and red name lock, at the same time having a habit of locking red names:

To be fair, the f106 “bomb” bay should not be the problem it is right now because it is supposed to close immediatly (and automaticaly) once the missile is launched or the seeker is powered off, but they haven’t got around to that bug report yet.
